If you're buying or planning to build on agricultural land in Maui, chances are you’ll need to submit and receive approval for a Farm Plan through the County of Maui. A Farm Plan is not just a formality — it's a critical requirement tied to zoning laws, building permits, and water meter access for AG-zoned parcels.
This guide breaks down everything you need to know, from what qualifies as a valid plan to how to prepare and submit one successfully.
A Farm Plan is a written proposal submitted to the Maui County Planning Department that outlines your intent to actively use AG-zoned land for agricultural purposes, as required by state and county land use laws.
It is typically required before you can obtain a building permit for a home, accessory structure, or farm dwelling on agricultural land.
A Farm Plan is generally required for:
Even if the property is under 2 acres, Maui County will often request a farm plan if you’re applying for any development-related permits on AG-zoned land.
Maui County requires your farm plan to be realistic, economically feasible, and appropriate for the size of your parcel. It typically must include:
1. Detailed Description of Agricultural Activities
2. Farm Infrastructure Plan
3. Site Plan / Map
4. Crop Schedule or Animal Care Plan
5. Annual Income Projections
6. Irrigation and Water Usage Estimates
Navigating Maui’s land use regulations can be tricky, especially when you're working with farm plans, AG water meters, and building permits. We’ve helped numerous clients successfully buy and develop agricultural properties in Haiku, Kula, Hana, and Upcountry Maui.
We also work with experienced local farm consultants and planning professionals who can help design and submit compliant farm plans that align with your property goals.
Whether you’re planning a working farm, sustainable retreat, or just trying to qualify for a water meter on raw land, we can help.
