Forsyth County, Georgia
Pasture here rented for $37 an acre in 2026, $2 above the Georgia median of $35. That's the 56th percentile among the 58 Georgia counties reporting that year, and the 72nd percentile nationally.
Put that in lease terms. On a quarter section of 160 acres, the gap between this county and the state median is $320 a year. A difference that looks small per acre is large at that scale.
Across Georgia's counties, the middle half of county averages in 2026 runs $27 to $44.38 an acre. Individual leases spread wider than county averages do, because grass, water, fencing and term length all move the price. An offer far outside this band should come with a reason the other side can say out loud.
Since 2021, this county's rate has fallen 6 percent: $39.50 then, $37 in 2026.
