It is important that lease agreements are fair, and in writing. Agreements that treat both parties fairly have more staying power. They are more likely to be renewed, more likely to be followed, and are more enforceable. Price Price is usually the first thing ranchers think about when they are deciding whether or not a lease agreement is fair. What is included in the lease, local supply and demand, and landowner-tenant history affect lease price. Lease rate surveys can provide a starting place for price negotiations. Two useful surveys are the Nebraska Farm Real Estate Market Highlights and the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service. Stocking Rate The stocking rate should be plainly stated in the lease agreement. This helps avoid disagreements. It provides the landowner a way to reach their goals for rangeland health and the cattle owner to reach production goals.
