A recent report by USAgNet.com put exact figures on a problem many hunters
face: the ever increasing prices of hunting land.

According to the report, national value of farm real estate climbed 13 percent over the past year. Farmland values ranged from as high as $12,200 per acre in Massachusetts to a low of $630 per acre in New Mexico. The highest cropland and pasture values were found in New Jersey, while North Dakota had the lowest values. Top deer states Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota averaged $4,070, $4,150 and $3,100, respectively per acre. The national average was $2,350 per acre of farmland.
