Vrijkomende boerenerven bieden ruimte aan nieuwe activiteiten in het landelijk gebied. Terwijl deze nieuwe activiteiten decennialang door overheden op diverse niveaus zijn beperkt, is de afgelopen jaren een kentering gaande. Provincies en gemeenten zien vrijkomende locaties in toenemende mate als een kans voor revitalisering van het landelijk gebied. Gezien de omvang van de transformaties en de verwachte leegstand zullen deze kansen ook in de toekomst alleen maar groter en belangrijker worden.
