Any conveyance by the State shall include a covenant that the land may be used only for agricultural production, that the covenant shall run with the land in perpetuity, that the severed development rights shall be held by the local County Agriculture Development Board or the State Agriculture Development Committee, and that the board or committee shall monitor and enforce the covenant.
