Excerpt from Tenant Farmers, South Platte Valley, Colorado: How They Get Farms and Accumulate Capital Where land values and land productivity are relatively high, tenancy rates are high also. Tenancy rates on irrigated lands are nearly twice as high as on surrounding dry land. The opportunity to enter farming as a tenant operator on irrigated land is more restricted and family ties are more important as an avenue to obtaining a farm than on dry land. Both related and non-related tenants received substantial family backing in getting established in farming.
