Farms between 1000 and 4000 acres have non-land costs between $186 per acre and $200 per acre (see Table 1). These farms have roughly 70% of their acres cash rented, with average cash rents ranging from $206 per acre up to $242 per acre.
Only a few reported timber pasture, which averaged $7.03 per acre. A few respondents indicated that they rent pasture on a per head per month basis. The average for that was $9.44 per cow-calf per month. Rents ranged from $4 to $27 and the average time on the pasture was 7.1 months. A 2009 review of nine Great Plains states shows the average monthly charge per cow-calf was $16.80.
