Crop Share Leasing in Ohio

Donald Breece and, D. Lynn Forster (2001)

Summary

The traditional crop-share lease is meant to reflect how income, expenses, and risk are shared between the tenant farmer and the landlord. The sharing levels are determined by each party´s contributions to the business. As agricultural technology and production practices change over time, shared leases should be reviewed by both parties to see that income continues to be distributed according to contributions.
