The value of rural lands in the country is estimated in order to facilitate, in an objective way, the financing processes of farms, for the establishment of sustainable farming communities. In this research, were analyzed, by fieldwork, 64 farms in the process of market to estimate the relationship between the price per unit area and a series of independent variables either quantitative or qualitative through the analysis of nonlinear regression with significance of 5% it is concluded that the variables that exert greater effect on rural land values are: the natural region where the farms are located, the area, the distance to the departmental main city and the access road infrastructure ( with or without asphalt). Logarithmic statistical models of form: LN (Price·ha^-1) = β₀+β₁LN (area) + β₂LN (distance to the departmental main city) were determined.

Palabras clave : rural land valuation; econometric models; hedonic prices.
