Abstract

The Nebraska Farm Real Estate Market Survey and Report 2019-2020 provides insight on recent trends on the market value of agricultural land and cash rental rates across the state. Each year, the special feature section from this report covers topics on new or emerging issues related to the agricultural land industry in Nebraska. These topics reflect interest expressed by panel members and readership of the Nebraska Farm Real Estate Market Highlights Reports. The special feature section in 2020 evaluates historic flooding and excessive moisture over the prior decade across Nebraska and implications on accounting for this type of risk in agricultural lease arrangements.
