Cropland prices in North Dakota on the rise
MINOT, N.D. (KMOT) – North Dakota farmers are seeing some of the highest prices for cropland in state history.
Agriculture Finance Specialist Bryon Parman said prices are up roughly 10.5% compared to last year. He explained that one of the factors contributing to the increase is high net farm incomes, which is increasing demand.
The high prices have helped increase the net worth of those owning farmland. However, they are making it difficult for those wanting to purchase more land.
Parman said the increase began in 2021, and since then, it has increased by 46%.
“What we’ve seen the last couple years is just some residual carryover increase, tailing that period of time,” said Parman.
Pasture rent prices are seeing an increase as well.

Accumulating snow to worsen road conditions in southern part of North Dakota
BISMARCK, ND (KXNET) — As the snow continues accumulating in the Bismarck/Mandan area and surrounding communities, the roads will become snow-covered and slippery.
Accumulations of 7-8 inches are expected in Bismarck, and more snow is expected further south, with as much as 9-12 inches projected to accumulate in Ashley.
The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) is advising people to drive carefully, as blowing snow can reduce visibility and slippery roads can make it difficult to maneuver a car.
The NWS is also advising people to leave extra time for travel, have an emergency kit in their car, and tell others about their travel plans.
Conditions are expected to improve from west to east on Saturday.
