All nine NDSU Extension-identified regions saw an increase in cropland values in 2025.

This represents the third year in a row where North Dakota cropland values have increased more than 10%.

The highest regional increase for 2022 occurred in the southeast where land values increased 22.25%.

The largest increase in land values occurred in the east-central and southern Red River Valley regions with both increasing over 20%.

Factors hinge, in some form, on the world economy and weather, which are not easy to predict.
