Your rent has not kept up with the price of commodities. With the numbers that you provided, you made $280 per acre and he made $40. An you have to ask if he is right in asking for better compensation??? You are making a very good profit and he is not getting a very good return on his land.

Here in Iowa when we shared cropped the land owner got 1/3 on soybeans and 1/4 on corn. They just provided the land, nothing else.

Just had to bid up the rent on a farm we have farmed for twenty two years. Window's kids where telling her how high "good" land was renting for. BTO where wanting it bad too. I paid $300 last year and had to go to $375 for this next year. I did get her to agree to lower 2013 rent back down if commodities go down.
