What the numbers say
- Claiborne County's rent is the same as the Mississippi average and 0.7 times the US average.
- It is the 20th highest of the 71 Mississippi counties NASS published for 2026.
- Since 2021 it has risen 20.0%, from $85 to $102 an acre.
- Gaps are years with no separate Claiborne figure: NASS ran no county survey in 2018, and in 2017, 2019 and 2020 it combined Claiborne 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.
