Does an agricultural conservation easement give the general public a right to enter my property?

No. An agricultural conservation easement preserves the property in perpetuity by preventing development or improvement of a parcel for a purpose other than agricultural production. It does not give the public the right to enter the property unless the landowner gives permission. (Such as for hunting, etc.)
