Eminent domain is a legal process by which land may be taken for the greater public good. Although farm groups generally oppose eminent domain, it is a power that our governments have in order to build such projects as roads schools and airports. In Illinois at least. farmers sometime have the ability to use neighbor's land to complete a drainage project. Of course, all this taking of land also requires due process in courts before the entity shows up to claim the land. Eminent domain is also sometimes used to help private companies such as railroads and pipelines. In August, Prairie Farmer explained, What is Eminent Domain. Be sure to read page two, also.
