Description

Types of land rental agreements vary widely in each locality and from one farming area to another and are often based on long-standing traditions. Landowners and tenants can choose from three primary types of lease agreements for crop production: fixed cash payment, flexible cash payment, or payment via a share of the crop produced. Custom farming may also be considered as an alternative to leasing land assets.
