Des Moines County: a careful place to begin.
For a Des Moines County farm, use the assessor property reference to organize the family’s paperwork—not to replace it. The first goal is a shared, source-based picture of what records exist.

County property resource
Find the record before drawing conclusions.
County assessor property-search portal for parcel and property-record research. A county assessor search supports record organization only; verify property, legal, ownership, and lease questions through their controlling sources.
Put timing beside every record
Note when the public record was accessed and when each family document was created or last updated. That simple timing record helps avoid mixing current and older information.
Do not collapse different records together
The portal does not substitute for the deed, a survey, a title review, current lease terms, or a parcel-specific management decision.
Before any tenant call, decide which questions need documents first and which can wait for a later conversation.

USDA NASS reports a county non-irrigated-cropland cash-rent estimate, while Iowa State’s survey reports respondents’ judgments of typical cash rents for crop acres. The figures are separate context, not a formula or recommendation for a particular parcel.
