Since the State controls : (sets) the initial (non-market) price, and in some states, controls who : can use the land and how, there is no market. As has been pointed out many times, in some instances the leaseholder turns around and sub-leases the allotment, at market price, and pockets the difference. The fact the leaseholder can do so would seem to indicate two things to me: 1. There is a market. 2. The government is charging less than market price. It's also true that some states lease their holdings on a competitive bid basis. Lands leased in such a manner bring in more than the pitiful $1.6x/AUM we get for our federal lands. -- - Don Baccus -
