Open in new window Grazing Lease Arrangements: Differences and Economic Incentives

Rodney Jones and Gary J MAy ( August, 2000 )

Summary

Results from this study suggest that certain types of short-term pasture leases promote substantially heavier stocking rates than long-term leases. One year per acre leases provide an economic incentive for the tenant to stock heavily. As the length of the lease increases, economic incentives do encourage lighter stocking rates under either type of lease. Under multi-year leases, stocking rate incentives are, on average, similar across lease types.
