Opportunity cost

Agricultural cash-rent baseline

County cash rent is unavailable

USDA may suppress county values when publishing them could disclose an individual operation.

Agricultural cash rent answers “compared with what?” It is a baseline for current land use, not a prediction of a private lease offer.
