County cash rent
Oregon Farmland Cash Rent: County Rates and Trends
USDA NASS reported 19 Oregon county cash-rent figures for non-irrigated cropland in 2025. The 2026 state average is USD 115/ac, up USD 5/ac from 2025.
The five highest reported Oregon counties in 2025 are Marion (USD 174/ac), Yamhill (USD 174/ac), Tillamook (USD 170/ac), Multnomah (USD 164/ac), Clackamas (USD 149/ac).
The five lowest reported counties are Wasco (USD 46/ac), Jackson (USD 48/ac), Wallowa (USD 49/ac), Douglas (USD 67/ac), Union (USD 73/ac), which shows why a statewide average is a weak substitute for county data.

Five-year Oregon trend
The 2026 state average is USD 115/ac, up USD 5/ac from 2025. The trend line below uses NASS state rows so it stays stable even when individual county suppression changes year to year.
From county average to parcel read
A county average tells you what surveyed non-irrigated cropland rented for in that county. It does not see whether your acres are high-PI prairie soil, a wet corner, a small irregular field, or ground with better access and drainage than the county average.
Scout reads the parcel's SSURGO soil profile, starts from the county NASS rent when it exists, and applies AgriTerra's PI-based soil band around that benchmark. If the county is unavailable, Scout uses the state figure and labels the downgrade.
Check the parcel, not just the county.
Start with the Oregon county benchmark, then let Scout read the parcel's soils, acreage, flood, wetlands, CRP fit, and energy context.
