We have probably 50-60% of our rented ground in 50/50 share crop arrangements with several different landlords. Land lords pay half of all agronomic inputs plus Supplies the land. Each gets half the crop.
In tight years, you make a lot more $ that way. In good years, you make less. It is a giant pain in some ways, figuring seed bills, Chem bills, not being able to store grain, etc. But it sure helps in tight years. Or on lower yielding or high risk farms. Overall, on average I think the land lord makes more coin than if it was cash rent.
The input issue described above can be remediated by having seed dealer,fert company,etc,etc. Split the bills 50/50. However if buying direct I understand your headaches.
