What the numbers say

In 2025, Hawaii County's rent was the same as the Hawaii average and 1.3 times the US average.
It is the highest of the 2 Hawaii counties NASS published for 2025.
From 2021 to 2025 it fell 16.1%, from $230 to $193 an acre.
Gaps are years with no separate Hawaii figure: in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2026 NASS combined Hawaii 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.
