What the numbers say
- Freestone County's rent is 0.7 times the Texas average and 0.2 times the US average.
- It is tied for the 80th lowest of the 190 Texas counties NASS published for 2026.
- Since 2022 it has risen 35.1%, from $18.50 to $25 an acre.
- Gaps are years with no separate Freestone figure: NASS ran no county survey in 2018, and in 2017, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2024 it combined Freestone 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.
