Cash Rental Rates for Iowa
2015 Survey
T
he cash rental rate information presented in this
publication is from a survey of farmers, landowners, agricultural lenders, and professional
farm managers. They supplied information based on
their best judgments about typical cash rental rates
for high, medium, and low quality cropland in their
counties, as well as for land devoted to production of
hay, oats, and pasture. Information about rents for
individual farms was not collected. The rental rates
summarized in this bulletin do not include the value of
any buildings or storage structures, manure application
contracts, or seed production contracts.
The cooperation and assistance of the landowners,
farmers, and agribusiness people who responded to
this survey are greatly appreciated. The distribution of
the 1,437 responses was 49 percent from farmers, 27
percent from landowners, 12 percent from agricultural
lenders, 10 percent from professional farm managers,
and 2 percent from other professions.
Determining Cash Rents
This summary can be used as a reference point for
determining an appropriate cash rental rate for a
particular farm. The following may justify a higher or
lower than average rent in specific cases:
•Small size or unusual shape of fields
•Terraces or creeks that affect the time it takes to
plant and harvest crops
•Difficult or restricted access to fields
•High or low fertility levels or pH index
•Existence of contracts for growing seed or specialty
grains, or manure application
•Above-average local grain prices due to proximity
to biofuel plants or feed mills
•USDA program variables, such as crop bases and
assigned yields
•Longevity of the lease
•Other services performed by the tenant
Additional survey information about cash rental
rates by county is available from USDA National
Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) at the following
website: www.nass.usda.gov/Statistics_by_State/Iowa/
Publications/County_Estimates/index.asp.

Definitions
Number of responses – number of individuals who
reported typical rental rates for each county.
2010-2014 average yields – based on farm level data
collected by National Agricultural Statistics Service
(NASS) for each county.
Average row crop CSR2 index – average corn
suitability rating 2 (CSR2) for the highest rated acres in
each county, up to 110 percent of the number of acres
planted to corn and soybeans in that county. Note:
values were converted to the CSR2 system in 2014.
High, medium, and low quality third land – quality of
land planted to corn and soybeans, using typical corn
yields as a reference for land quality within the county.
Typical corn yields – average yields for the high third,
medium third, and low third productivity farms in each
county as reported to NASS.
Average rents per unit – overall average rent for corn/
soybean land in each county, divided by the 5-year
average corn yield, the five-year average soybean yield,
and the average row crop CSR2 index value for each
county.
Improved permanent pasture – pasture that contains
both grasses and legumes and is regularly fertilized.
Unimproved pasture – pasture with mainly bluegrass
that receives little fertilizer or renovation.
Pasture, $/AUM – rent charged per animal unit month.
One AUM is equal to a beef cow and calf or equivalent
grazing for one month.
Cornstalk grazing – includes grazing of cornstalks in
fall or winter, but not mechanical harvesting.
Hunting rights – rent charged to allow hunting on
land, per year.
