Qualified Conservation District Contribution - deduction in what section of the form? Doesn't seem to fit the categories listed

Sadly TT does not support this https://digitalasset.intuit.com/DOCUMENT/A5pxS2bpm/Unsupported-Calcs-GEN12868.pdf  8. Qualified Conservation Contributions: The program does not support the calculation for Qualified Conservation Contributions or the charity limits for these types of contributions. For details refer to the IRS instructions for Form 8283.

Sorry, I am not a TT employee....

https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/26/1.170A-14 to read up on rules of what qualifies.

A conservation easement that qualifies for a tax deduction is considered a non-cash charitable contribution. Special rules apply for charitable deductions of conservation easements. The amount of the deduction as well as other characteristics can vary based on how the person or entity uses the property that is being conserved.

Taxpayers report conservation easements and other non-cash charitable contributions by filing Form 8283 with their tax return.
