What the numbers say
- Price County's rent is 0.2 times the Wisconsin average and 0.3 times the US average.
- It is the 4th lowest of the 68 Wisconsin counties NASS published for 2026.
- Since 2009 it has risen 23.3%, from $30 to $37 an acre.
- Gaps are years with no separate Price figure: NASS ran no county survey in 2015 or 2018, in 2010 it combined Price into "other counties", and NASS had no figure available in 2008. 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.
