MADISON — The value of farm real estate in Wisconsin dipped 3 percent
since last year, but it remains well above the national average.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture says an acre of agricultural
property averages $3,750 in Wisconsin. That ties with Michigan for
18th highest in the nation. Minnesota’s value was about $2,900.
Values in all three states are well above the national average of
$2,100 per acre.
Farm real estate includes land and buildings.
Meanwhile, cropland values in Wisconsin averaged $3,650 per acre.
That’s an increase of more than 1 percent from the previous year.
