Description

Typically, in these arrangements, the landlord will share input costs (including but not limited to seed, fertilizer, fuel) while the tenant provides all of the labor and remaining input costs. Once harvested, proceeds will be divided according to the agreement (normally ranges from 25/75 to 50/50). In this scenario, the farmers both share the risk with the other person and the landlord will typically satisfy the "actively engaged in farming" requirement of federal programs. The downside (or upside - depending on your view) for the tenant is that he/she loses autonomy because the landlord is involved in the decisions of the operation. Sharply different than the cash rent lease, rental income will be subject to self employment taxes and may lower the landlord-farmer's social security check if he/she is retired.

Crop-share Cash Farm Lease is an agricultural leasing agreement between a landlord and tenant. It is a type of agricultural rental agreement where the tenant agrees to pay the landlord a share of the crop or cash for the right to use and occupy the farm land for farming purposes. The landlord and tenant negotiate the terms of the lease, including the percentage of the crop or cash the tenant will pay to the landlord. There are two main types of Crop-share Cash Farm Lease agreements: 1. Crop-share Lease: In this type of lease, the tenant agrees to pay the landlord a share of the crop or cash in exchange for the use of the land. The landlord and tenant typically agree on a percentage of the crop or cash that the tenant must pay to the landlord. 2. Cash Farm Lease: In this type of lease, the tenant agrees to pay the landlord a pre-determined amount of cash per acre in exchange for the use of the land. The amount of cash the tenant must pay is typically negotiated between the landlord and tenant.
