COSA The 2024 CSU Land Rental & Custom Rates survey is live!

Hello COSA, it’s that time of year again!
Please report your information and pass it on to any of your producers to fill in too – the more data, the better the results (which we share back with you later in the year).
I hope you find these reports helpful in planning and procuring your vendors and writing contracts and leases!

What is the Land Rental and Custom Rates Survey?

Colorado State University Extension conducts an annual survey of custom rates charged for various crop and livestock operations and lease arrangements in Colorado in the preceding year. Data is collected from agricultural producers, landowners and managers, lenders, agricultural consultants, machine operators, and Extension agents. Results of the survey are used by producers, ag lenders, county assessors, the Colorado Department of Agriculture, land appraisers, and more. Land Rental and Custom Rates in Colorado is one of the most widely used publications available from the CSU Agriculture and Business Management Team.

Why should I complete the survey?

The Land Rental and Custom Rates Report will allow you to advertise custom services or locate and hire custom service operators in your area.
More responses ensure more accurate data and a more complete list of rates for today’s practices. These determined rates influence land appraisal values, your property taxes, and more.
Information about Land Rental and Custom Rates is used by elected officials to inform federal, state, and local policy, including crop insurance.
Your responses are safe and anonymous.
