FAQs
How does the soil rating affect my Iowa Farmland value?
Soil ratings can have a major impact on the overall value of farmland in Iowa. Soil productivity is measured using the Corn Suitability Rating 2 (CSR2) scale, which ranges from 1 to 100. A rating of 100 CSR2 represents the most productive and valuable soil, while a 1 CSR2 rating represents the least productive. Across the majority of Iowa’s primary agricultural counties, farmland typically carries soil ratings of 70 CSR2 or higher. The most valuable farmland in Iowa generally features soil ratings ranging from 85 to 100 CSR2, which are considered highly productive soils capable of generating strong crop yields.
Can you sell land with a farm lease in place?
Yes, oftentimes farmland that sells is attached to a lease in some form whether the farm is selling in the spring, summer, or fall. Farms that carry a lease in Iowa typically carry a lease term from March 1st to March 1st. Terms for the current lease during the sales process are usually laid out or negotiated prior to an agreement being made and often a part of the purchase agreement provisions.
What date is the Iowa farm lease termination?
The standard date for termination is September 1st of the calendar year. The catch is the current operator needs to be notified prior to that date typically via Certified Mail. In the event this date is missed the current operator has binding operational agreement for the following crop year under the prior year terms and agreements.
Is it better to sell Iowa land on auction or listing?
Choosing between auctioning land or listing land for sale is mainly based on the individual farm itself. Some make ups of land per the region offer a higher number of competitive buyers based on the make up of the land in the area it is located. Some farms offer a lesser number of competitive buyers based on the make up of the land. Other factors that contribute to auctioning land versus listing land would be how much land has sold in one given area in the past 3-7 years. If a high number of land has been sold in the area via public market it may make the most sense to list the land due to many local buyers already purchasing farms in recent years. Another factor into this decision is the current agronomic environment if that outlook is bullish and bearish.
