Land Lease Agreement Template

Leasing agricultural land is a profitable option for all the parties involved.

For the farmer or “tenant”, it gives you access to land for the expansion of your enterprises without the need to incur large capital costs.

For the Landholder or “Lessor”, it means you are able to generate a steady income from the land, over the term of the lease, without having to work it yourself.

It’s important to put the leasing arrangement in writing so that both parties understand their obligations. Ideally you should do this before the tenant takes possession of the land so that you don’t get caught by the implied terms of a verbal lease.

This agricultural lease allows the tenant (farmer) to have exclusive possession of the land for the term of the lease

It includes a strict code of conduct that imposes a duty of care on the farmer (tenant) to preserve the land they are farming. The obligation to conserve the resource by not overgrazing, introducing disease, or depleting the soil rests firmly at the feet of the farmer, protecting the long term viability of the agricultural assets.
