Idaho farm real estate averages $4,580 an acre (USDA, 2025), which ranks 25 of 48 states, close to the national average. Raw and rural parcels usually trade below that.
According to the USDA's 2025 land value survey, the average value of farm real estate in Idaho is $4,580 per acre. That is the all in average across land and buildings, so vacant, wooded or recreational ground typically sells for less per acre, while small buildable lots near a town can sell for more. It runs higher than neighboring Montana at $1,230 an acre. Idaho is in the West. Much of the acreage out here is grazing, recreational or remote ground, where access, water and usable terrain swing value more than the state average suggests.
Smaller parcels carry a higher price per acre than large blocks, the same land just costs more by the piece. Rough ranges for raw or rural Idaho land:
