What the numbers say
Garrett County's rent is 0.5 times the Maryland average and 1.8 times the US average.
It is the 2nd lowest of the 7 Maryland counties NASS published for 2026.
Since 2023 it has risen 42.9%, from $21 to $30 an acre.
Gaps are years with no separate Garrett figure: in 2022 NASS combined Garrett 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.
