Rentals here could be in the $500 - $600.00 per acre region. Blocks of land which are adjunct to dairy farming platform also are up as high as $1,000.00 per acre. Some leases have tagged the rent as a percentage of the gross income, which would be around 25 – 32%.

Average cash rent for pasture was $1.70 per acre in 2021, down $0.70 from the previous year. The 2021 Colorado average farmland real estate value, a measurement of the value of all land and buildings on farms, was $1,610 per acre. This is an increase of 1.3 percent from 2020 and 2.5 percent from 2019.

Lease terms either ask for rent to be paid by the acre or by the stocking rate which is the cow/calf pair. The per-acre lease is a flat amount per acre for the grazing season. The cow/calf pair rate is typically expressed either as an amount per month or an amount for the grazing season.
