2013 Legislative Updates► Past: Iowa statute did not require written
termination notice on parcels of less than 40 acres.► Now: Iowa Code 562.5 requires a written
termination notice on all parcels regardless of size.► If proper written notice is not provided by
September 1, the lease automatically continues on the same terms and conditions as the original agreement.

Exception: Animal Feeding Operations
• If primary use of a rented acreage of less than 40 acres is for an animal feeding operation, written notice requirement does not apply.
• “Mere cropper” exception remains – essentially refers to someone hired (as an employee or custom operator) to plant/harvest the crop.

Land Holder Liability• 2013 Legislature added the phrase
“Educational activities” to Iowa Code 416C -- included in the list of recreational purposes for which Iowa landholders have protection from liability.
• So, if land holder desires to hold a school farm tour, the code provides some protection from liability.

Crop Conditions• Drought last year in 2012 • Cool wet spring and delayed planting 2013• Crop impacts• Communications skills exercised?

Untimely Rains Induced Farm Lease Considerations• Communicate with your landowner• Send photos of the crops, pastures• Flexible leases: are crop insurance
proceeds included in the rent formula?

CSR2 – Crop Suitability Rating• What is it?• Why did it need to change?• Where do I find my CSR2?• How much did it change?• When will CSR2 be used by assessors?• How does it change the CSR for my land?

CSR2 = S‐M‐F‐W‐D±EJWhere:S is the taxonomic subgroup class of the soil seriesM is the family particle size classF refers to the field conditions of a particular SMUW is the water holding capacityD is a soil depth & erosion factor TEJ is an expert judgment correction factor

Why did CSR need to change?1. The philosophical goal is to get values
proportional to CSR but with greater transparency, consistency & ease.
2. The technical goal is to have CSR2 consistent with today’s soil mapping, classification, and government programs.
3. The ancillary goal is to be able to extend CSR2 across boundaries.

Leasing Practices• 10th land ownership survey since 1958• Phone survey conducted by the Center for
Survey Statistics and Methodology and the ISU Statistical Department
• Survey selection is based on 40 acre parcel; all owners are surveyed.
• This year allows some discussion of owners not just acres
• 69% response rate

Response• Sent out 6,000 surveys• 1,703 county observations received
Farmers; 50%
Landowners; 27%
Prof. Man-agers; 13%
Ag Lenders; 8% Other; 2%

Timing and Purpose• Questionnaires sent out in March• Summary ready in May
Purpose: provide information to tenants and landlords to use as a starting point for estimating a fair cash rent.
![Page 44: Farm Leasing Arrangements](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012917/568163f2550346895dd574b2/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Questions• “What do you think typical cash rental rates
are in your county?”• Half paid in advance, half after harvest• For corn and soybean land
– High 1/3, medium 1/3, low 1/3 productivity– Based on farm yields reported to NASS
• Oats, hay, pasture, cornstalks, hunting

Other Factors• Fertility and drainage• Size and shape of fields, % tillable• USDA program bases and yields• Local grain prices and basis• Seed production contracts• Manure application contracts• Longevity of lease• “Extras” done by tenant
![Page 55: Farm Leasing Arrangements](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012917/568163f2550346895dd574b2/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Influences on 2014 Rental Market• Grain prices
– Increased acres– Price of crude oil (ethanol demand and price)– Export demand– Livestock feeding
• Reduced crop yields in 2012, including forages• New farm bill provisionsSupply and demand will ultimately set the rents.

Flexible Cash Lease• Rent is paid in cash• Actual rent paid each year is determined
by a formula that includes any or all of:– Actual price– Actual yield– Costs of production
• Also called “variable” cash leases
![Page 77: Farm Leasing Arrangements](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012917/568163f2550346895dd574b2/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Reasons for Flexible Leases• Fewer landowners and tenants want to be
involved in crop share leases• Still recognize a need for sharing risk• Prices and yields have been volatile in
recent years• Cash rents have lagged behind profits in
crop production• Neither party enjoys renegotiating annually
![Page 78: Farm Leasing Arrangements](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012917/568163f2550346895dd574b2/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Prevalence of Flexible Leases• Iowa land tenure surveys
– 1993: 3.5% of cash rented acres– 2003: 11% of cash rented acres– 2007: 12% of cash rented acres– 2012: 16% of cash rented acres
• Ohio 1999: 8% of cash leases• Illinois 2012: 32% of cash leases under
professional management
![Page 79: Farm Leasing Arrangements](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012917/568163f2550346895dd574b2/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Research by Edwards & Hart• Compare how different types of flexible leases
affect risk sharing between landowners and tenants
• Monte Carlo simulation with 5,000 draws• Yield volatilities derived from YP rates• Price and cost volatilities derived from corn,
soybean and energy options• Rank correlations estimated from historical
data 1975-2011 (detrended) for yields, prices and costs (energy related)

Types of Flexible LeasesFlex on yield only
Rent = fixed $/bu. x actual yield Rent = base rent x (actual yield / base yield)
Flex on price only Rent = fixed bu./acre x actual price Rent = base rent x (actual price / base price)
![Page 81: Farm Leasing Arrangements](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012917/568163f2550346895dd574b2/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Flex on Both Price and Yield• Rent = actual price x actual yield x fixed %
(% of gross revenue)• Rent = actual price x actual yield x fixed %
with a minimum and maximum rent• Rent = base rent x (actual yield / base yield)
x (actual price / base price)• Rent = base rent + fixed % x (actual gross
revenue – base gross revenue) (bonus)

Flex on Yield, Price and Costs• Rent = base rent + fixed % x (actual gross revenue – base gross revenue) where base gross revenue = cost of prod.• Rent = base rent x (actual yield / base yield) x (actual price / base price) x (base costs of production / actual costs)

Conclusions• Flexible cash leases transfer significant
financial risk from tenant to landowner.• Flexing on yield only has little effect.• Flexing on price only has more effect.• Flexing on price x yield has more effect.• Including production costs has more effect.• Setting a minimum rent shifts risk back to the
tenant.• A 50-50 crop-share lease still shifts most risk.

Conclusions• Crop insurance reduces everyone’s risk
(except the government!)

Hazards for 2014
• Interest rate increases• Margin compression• New farm bill/understanding
