Cash rents for U.S. farmland, year by year
USDA NASS land values and cash rents, through 2026.
Our take written by Farming Land Sale
NASS's U.S. cash rent for cropland is $160 per acre in 2026 and its pasture rent $16.5; the 1998 rows read $66.5 and $8.8. Irrigated and non-irrigated cropland rents begin in the national table in 2011, at $171 and $101, and read $244 and $146 in 2026.
The state table shows each 2021 and 2026 cropland rent with our percent change; the U.S. row's change is +13.5% and Wyoming's row shows -14.5%. Beginning with the 2022 estimate year, NASS incorporated model-based state-level estimates into its cash rental rates process, as the quote below explains.
Our reading of the USDA figures on this page. It adds no facts of its own and isn't advice about any parcel, lease or sale.
Check before you rely on a figure: the NASS input values are reproduced as NASS prints them in the field excerpts, with each record's LOAD_TIME (when NASS inserted it into Quick Stats); calculated figures and unit conversions are labeled "ours". Verify any figure in NASS Quick Stats or the NASS report before acting on it.

How NASS sets the state rents
The Cash Rents Survey is conducted on an annual basis.
The target population for the cash rents estimate program is all farms and ranches with $1,000 or more in agricultural sales (or potential sales) who rent land from others on a cash rent basis.
Beginning with the 2022 estimate year, model-based state-level estimates were incorporated into the NASS cash rental rates process.
State and county level cash rent estimates are published, in so far as they meet disclosure rules and publication standards.
What NASS's codes and columns mean
D Withheld to avoid disclosing data for individual operations.
S Insufficient number of reports to establish an estimate.
NA Not available.
Published data value or suppression reason code.
Ratio of the standard error to the estimate, expressed as a percent.
A concatenation of six columns: commodity_desc, class_desc, prodn_practice_desc, util_practice_desc, statisticcat_desc, and unit_desc.
Date and time indicating when record was inserted into Quick Stats database.

Method note How these figures are built
Data dates: the 2026 land values and 2026 state, region and U.S. cash rents carry LOAD_TIME 2026-07-31 (Released July 31, 2026, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS)
source); the 2026 county cash rents carry LOAD_TIME 2026-08-21. Records for earlier years have their own LOAD_TIME, shown in their field excerpts; LOAD_TIME is when NASS inserted the record into Quick Stats, not the year the figure describes. Verify any figure in NASS Quick Stats or the NASS report before you rely on it.
The NASS inputs are VALUE fields from the Quick Stats file qs.economics_20261017.txt.gz, shown as NASS prints them, in dollars per acre unless a column says otherwise; calculated figures and unit conversions (such as totals shown in millions) are labeled as ours. Our checker re-read all 23,311 records in NASS's current file on October 19 and matched the state, region and U.S. land values to the tables of the Land Values 2026 Summary. Percent changes, ratios, shares and counts are our calculations, labeled "ours". Nothing is adjusted for inflation. Full method →
