Does AgriTerra work for Indiana farmland?

Yes. The federal data layers behind Scout (USDA soils and cash rent, NREL solar and wind, FEMA flood, USGS water, USFWS wetlands) are nationwide, so any Indiana parcel can be analyzed for free. Indiana is one of the first states with pre-loaded parcel boundaries, so you can tap your exact parcel on the satellite map and get its measured acreage back automatically.

What is Indiana farmland worth?

Indiana cropland is strong, above the national average, with real county-to-county spread. Rather than quote a single statewide figure, Scout reports the USDA NASS cash-rent average for the county of the specific parcel you look at, the one figure NASS publishes, beside a soil-adjusted range that AgriTerra models from that parcel's soils, because value in Indiana varies far more by county and soil than any state average captures.

Do I need an account to analyze a Indiana parcel?

No. You can search a Indiana address, pick the parcel, and see soil and cash rent with no account. Running the solar, wind, and CRP comparison is free with a free account, 3 a month. An account or purchase only comes up for the full $89 Decision Report.

Indiana Farmland Analysis

Soil quality, USDA cash-rent benchmarks, and solar and wind income, with CRP's enrollment status, for any Indiana parcel, free, from 6 federal data sources.

AgriTerra Scout is a free tool for analyzing Indiana farmland. Search an address or tap your parcel on the map and Scout reads its soil capability, USDA county cash-rent benchmarks, modeled solar and wind income, water and flood exposure, and conservation-program eligibility, all from 6 federal data sources, with the source and date on every number.

What Scout shows you in Indiana

Soil capability: NRCS SSURGO soil class, drainage, and productivity for the parcel. See how to read a soil survey and the soil productivity index.
Cash rent: the USDA NASS county cash-rent average (the published figure), with a soil-adjusted range AgriTerra models from the parcel's soils.
Solar & wind income: modeled from NREL PVWatts for solar and AgriTerra wind resource buckets over NREL/WINDExchange 100 m wind maps, as planning bands rather than developer offers. See the solar leasing guide and wind leasing guide.
CRP: whether the soil data flags acres as likely eligible, and the program's status: new CRP enrollment is paused, so Scout shows no CRP rate. See how CRP works and CRP rates by state.
Water & flood: USGS water data and the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer.
Wetlands: USFWS National Wetlands Inventory classifications. See wetlands on your land and hydric soils.

Indiana farmland at a glance

Indiana runs a classic corn-and-soybean rotation on strong central-till-plain soils, with more topographic and drainage variation than Illinois to its west. It is one of two states where AgriTerra has pre-loaded parcel boundaries, so you can tap your exact parcel rather than drawing it.

Indiana farms grow corn and soybeans, with wheat in the south, and its cropland is strong, above the national average, with real county-to-county spread. Because that value swings by county and soil, Scout reports the USDA benchmark for the exact parcel you look at rather than a statewide average. See what farmland produces and what it earns, or the county-by-county breakdown of what crops grow in Indiana.

Analyzing a Indiana parcel

Indiana is one of the first states with pre-loaded parcel boundaries, so you can tap your exact parcel on the satellite map and get its measured acreage back automatically.

Once the parcel is set, Scout pulls every layer in parallel and lays the results out as a plain-language comparison (keep farming, cash-rent, enroll in CRP, or lease for solar or wind), each with a per-acre figure and the source behind it (CRP shows its status instead while new enrollment is paused). See the land-use optimizer for how the ranking works, check the Indiana cash rent county table, compare a developer offer with the farm vs. solar vs. CRP tool, or farmland analysis in other states.

Indiana farmland by county

Every Indiana county with its own data page below, each carrying that county's USDA NASS cash rent, reported crops, CRP context, and a free parcel-level read. The figure shown is the USDA NASS 2026 county average cash rent per acre; a county NASS last reported in an earlier year shows that year under its figure.
