No problem!
Cash rent has so many variables associated with price, I would wonder why it is so cheap in his area. Field size may be small, poor soil rating, real hilly, no drain tile, lots of rocks, a long ways from any elevator, no competition in the area? Could be a million reasons its cheap in the area.
field is 100 acres, its above average on yields and has irrigation on it as well
farmer that lease's it, lease 2,000 acres in my area and thats the going rate here (have talked to several farm owners in a 60 mile radius
its just doesn't pay as much here
crops have been Potato's, corn soybeans, Oats and winter wheat over the past 20 yrs(not in that order, just what gets planted here)
OH and its flat more or less
and has water on all sides or say a 100 yrds from field, a 5 acre pond, a native trout stream and a spring feed creek, all the water on site tends to make this place green when other farms are DRY, lots of moisture in AM's from dew
Draw back is excessive crop damage, as farm is surrounded by a NO hunting land(1,000+ acres)
so, nothing to see a 100 + deer in fields every night!
and we have TRIED to thin numbers, but been a loosing game, seems as many as we kill new one's take there place! HAHA
