The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) reported the average cash rent for Illinois in 2024 at $269 per acre, up by $10 per acre from $259 per acre for 2023 (see Figure 2). The 2024 rent is another new record for Illinois and continues a trend of significant increases since 2020.
Crop share In some cases a 1/3 to the landowner and 2/3 to the tenant agreement is used but in this this case the landowner would be expected to pay for 1/3 of the seed, fertilizer and chemicals cost for producing the crops.
Both parties should share in total returns in the same proportion as they contribute resources. This principle implies that if a landlord contributed 50 percent of total resources and the tenant 50 percent, then a sharing of the crop 50/50 would be equitable. All inputs should be valued, including management and risk.
Cash-rent tenants means a producer who rents land from another producer or landowner for a fixed cash amount or fix quantity of crop or crop proceeds.
There are a few 60-40 leases in which the landowner receives 60 percent of the crops and pays 60 percent of the operating costs, but as a general rule the smaller share, 1/3 or 40 percent, is the portion of the crop which goes to the landowner.
