About Arizona Ag Link

Arizona Ag Link connects landholders with farmers and ranchers seeking access to agricultural land. Whether you're looking to lease, sell, transition your property, or find land to start or expand an agricultural operation, Arizona Ag Link helps bring people together and create new opportunities for Arizona agriculture.

Access to land is one of the greatest challenges facing farmers and ranchers today. At the same time, Arizona’s farm and ranchland is being lost to development at an alarming rate. The American Farmland Trust estimates that more than 230,000 acres in Maricopa County alone could be converted to development between 2016 and 2040. Arizona Ag Link helps bridge the gap by making it easier for landholders and landseekers to connect and keep farm and ranch land in production.

While Arizona Ag Link is available statewide, outreach efforts are currently focused on Pima, Maricopa, and Yavapai counties. Don't see many listings in your area yet? Creating a listing or profile helps grow the network and makes it easier for others in your region to connect.
