The sale price of farmland in Auvergne Rhône Alpes

Updated on 8 September 2025

As every year, we update our articles on the sale prices of farmland and meadows in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. These figures have been provided since 2011 for vacant land and since 2012 for rented land.

Land sale prices in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region

The average price of unleased land (€4,860/ha) has risen by almost 4% over one year and by only 9% since 2021.
The decline in rented land at regional level is slightly down over one year (-1.7%) and masks very significant increases in certain départements (e.g. +3% in Allier, +5% in Puy-de-Dôme or Haute-Loire).
The price of vacant land has fallen by 2% to €4,680/ha in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes in 2023.

GOOD TO KNOW: For a personalised analysis of the value of your land, our Land Valuation Study service is available for a small fee, enabling you to find out about the local market and determine the true price of your land in your commune.

Data source : The data used in this article comes from statistics published by the SAFER relating to plots larger than 70 ares (7,000 m² or 0.70 hectare), which have been statistically processed by Agreste (the Ministry of Agriculture's statistical service) and then published in the Journal Officiel in the Barème indicatif de la valeur vénale moyenne des terres agricoles en 2024.

As mentioned, these market prices are purely indicative and in no way oblige you to buy or sell at the rates indicated. The details of the minimum and maximum prices shown also show that prices generally vary widely. However, they should be taken into account to avoid any pre-emption with a price revision by the SAFER.
