Profitable Montana Leasing Ideas for Small Landholders
An investigation prompted by a Montana Chamber of Commerce inquiry shows leasing land can profit both landowners and tenants. J D O Donnell explains share leases reward equipment, labor, and risk, with cash rents of 5 to 10 dollars per acre offering higher potential returns. The example of Henry Yost on 80 acres yielded a net profit of 1600 for Mrs D onnel and 1800 for the tenant from alfalfa grain and beds, illustrating viable farming for small means in the Yellowstone region.
