Land Value Surveys for Producers and Agents
Author: Beau Neal
Planning Unit: Woodford County CES
Major Program: Farm Management, Economics and Policy
Plan of Work: Sustainable Agriculture
Outcome: Initial Outcome
Agricultural landowners, farmers, Extension Agents for Agriculture and Natural Resources, and other interested people need a reliable source of information for determining the value of agricultural land and cash rental rates for agricultural land.
Agricultural and Natural Resource agents worked with Dr. Greg Halich from the Martin Gatton College of Agriculture Food and Environment, Agricultural Economics Department to collect information from landowners regarding existing cash rental rates for agricultural land and PVA offices, real estate agents, and individual landowners to ascertain current agricultural land values across the commonwealth.
Seventy-one Agents for Agriculture and Natural Resources surveyed individual landowners, farmers, PVAs and real estate agents/ auction companies from those counties represented.
Please note that the outcomes statement must use evaluation data to describe the change(s) that occurred in individuals, groups, families, businesses, or in the community because of the program/outreach. Seventy usable surveys were submitted to Dr. Halich. The information from those surveys will be compiled and used to update the publication AEC 97 Land Value and Cash Rent Survey. That publication will consist of aggregated information that will be broken into regions and sub regions so that people utilizing the information can hone in on the specific region/sub-region that they are interested in.
