    could be returned

    Yeah. Could be. It is not easy by any means. A lot of this land like large feedlots would need significant rehabilitation efforts. Further, pedological carbon sequestration is slow, and entirely microbially driven

    Even converting a hay crop to native prairie is a gargantuan effort.

    We really, really, need to manage our lands better and plan for scenarios where they can be used in ways other than their initial land use
