What the numbers say
- Duchesne County's rent is the same as the Utah average and 0.5 times the US average.
- It is tied for the 9th highest of the 24 Utah counties NASS published for 2026.
- Since 2008 it has risen 98.3%, from $59 to $117 an acre.
- Gaps are years with no separate Duchesne figure: NASS ran no county survey in 2015 or 2018, and in 2023 it combined Duchesne into "other counties". Nothing is filled in.

What this measures
NASS asks farm operators what they pay in cash rent per acre, separately for irrigated cropland, non-irrigated cropland and pasture. State figures come out at the end of July; county figures follow in August. When too few farms in a county answer, NASS combines that county with others and publishes one "other counties" figure, so some counties have no figure of their own.
