The information is based on data NASS gathered from over 200,000 agricultural producers nationwide during the 2014 county level cash rents survey. There were over 8,200 producers sampled in Indiana during the 2014 survey.

In counties that are unpublished, NASS did not receive enough survey responses to publish a reliable estimate. In these instances, the rental values are combined with those of other unpublished counties and included in the ‘other county total’ within the district.

The 2014 county cash rental rates data for cropland and pasture for Indiana and all other states are available online.
