AcreTrader, via our wholly-owned subsidiary AcreTrader Management, LLC, will lease your farmland to reputable local farmers who typically pay a predetermined cash rent, a practice common throughout the farming industry. We typically collect the annual rent before crops are planted, thus greatly decreasing default risk. The local farmer/tenant takes care of planting, monitoring, harvesting, marketing and selling crops, and AcreTrader Management often works with these tenants to ensure that the Property is well maintained and that best practices and sustainability remain priorities.
