Book excerpt: The agricultural corporations act restricts corporations from directly or indirectly owning, acquiring or otherwise obtaining or leasing agricultural land, subject to fourteen enumerated exceptions. In our opinion, The Nature Conservancy, a duly registered foreign nonprofit corporation, is engaged in business of a nonfarming nature in Kansas. Accordingly, agricultural land in Cheyenne Bottoms which is owned by The Nature Conservancy falls within the statutory exception which allows a corporation to acquire such acreage as is necessary for the operation of a nonfarming business. The Nature Conservancy may own such agricultural land as is useful, convenient, suitable and needful for the accomplishment of its legitimate corporate purposes.
