Key takeaways

  • Productivity comes first. Farmland is valued on soil class, tillable share, water and drainage before anything else. Two neighboring fields can be worth very different numbers per acre on soil alone.
  • Cropland over pasture. Cropland generally carries a premium over pasture because the per acre return is higher. On mixed ground the tillable acres and the grazing acres are priced differently.
  • A tenant lease is fine. An existing lease does not stop a sale. The lease and any standing crop are handled at closing, and a direct buyer can usually take the land subject to the lease rather than forcing the tenant off.
  • Rights move the number. Water rights, mineral rights and any CRP or conservation contract travel with the deal and change the value. Flag them early so the offer is built on the real picture.
  • Your field, not the average. Farmland has appreciated steadily, but a single field's worth is set by its own comps and soil, not the headline state average. A written offer should name the comps it used.

Selling farm land, the practical version

Farmland sells to a narrower set of buyers than people expect: neighboring farmers expanding their operation, farm operators and investors, and direct buyers like us. Whether you inherited the family farm and have no one to work it, or you are an owner ready to cash out, the path is similar.

Who buys farm land

Neighbors. The farmer next door is often the most motivated buyer, because your ground makes their operation more efficient. Farm investors and operators. Buyers who want productive ground as an income asset. Direct cash buyers. A buyer like FrontierAcre who closes fast, with no financing contingency.

What affects what your farm land is worth

Soil and productivity. Row crop ground is valued very differently from pasture or marginal land. Water and irrigation. Water rights and irrigation can be the single biggest factor in some regions. Tenant leases. An existing cash or crop share lease affects timing and what a buyer will pay, and needs to be disclosed. Programs. CRP or other program enrollments transfer with the land and change the math.

The USDA's recent Land Values data put US cropland at about $5,830 per acre and pastureland at about $1,920 per acre on average, but your ground depends entirely on its soil, water, location and lease. See our per acre value guide for the state by state picture.

Selling farm land, answered

What farmland owners ask us most.

Who buys farm land?

Neighboring farmers, farm investors and operators, and direct cash buyers. The neighbor next door is often the most motivated, while a cash buyer like FrontierAcre offers the fastest, most certain close.

How do I sell farm land that has a tenant lease?

Disclose the lease up front. Depending on its terms, a buyer either honors it through the season or closes subject to it. We routinely buy leased farmland and handle the timing at closing.

What is my farm land worth per acre?

It depends on soil, water, location, lease and any program enrollment far more than on raw acreage. National averages are only a baseline, so we price each farm on recent comparable sales nearby.

Can I sell inherited farm land quickly?

Yes. Inherited farms are common purchases for us. We can work with multiple heirs and an estate, and the title company resolves the ownership at closing.
