Pasture & Grass Hay Lease Spreadsheet Tool
by Michael Langemeier
Updated July 2025
This spreadsheet can be used alongside the article Leasing Pasture and Hay Ground to evaluate fair rental rates for pasture and hay ground. Users can enter custom values for stocking rates, hay yields, land quality, and local prices to calculate lease rates per acre. The tool includes options for both cash rent and share lease arrangements and provides clear examples to support decision-making for both landowners and tenants.
