[QUOTE="upfrombottom, post: 733523, member: 13088"] Pasture around here rents for $10 to $15 an acre per year. Being a small community everybody knows who you are or knows your kin. I hate to give up my secret, but most of the land owners here have moved off or there families have passed on and have left it to them. When I first started trying to rent a place, most of the best ground was taken. I was able to rent a few small places to get started, most were ran down and the owners just wanted to have them cleaned up. I would trade fence and building repairs for the rent. Once the owners saw that you will keep the place up, the rent is very negotiable. After a couple years I would approach some of the bigger land owners and ask them about renting. I always have had a good standing with the owners of the pastures I already had, and used them for references. I was able to rent a couple of places, out from under a rancher that is alot bigger than I am, or will probably ever be. One I pay no rent, 80 acres, I just keep up the place and cut firewood for the guys mother and dad. It helped that we went to grade school together. When I say keep it up, I mean fences, gates, sheds, barns, grass, trees trimmed and the like. [/QUOTE]
