15 acres bordered by woods is kinda small field, and the trees would harm an acre's worth of potential..... Is it rectangular, or an odd shape - odd shapes, esp smaller like that, are less desirable.
No one will drive a real long distance to farm a smaller patch, so they are limited to finding renters from nearby, or renting other land fairly close.
These things affect rent prices as well. Aside from the yirld potential the others mention.
My sis had 5 acres of farm land, good soil but all of the above issues. It cost me more fuel to do the 10 mile round trip than to actually work, plant, spray, or harvest the ground. While good farm land was going for $150 an acre at the time, I penciled it out & I couldn't really afford $50 an acre, when you considered the loss to tree shade, odd field sizes, deer & other wildlife coming out of the woods, and the cost to get there & back.Just not enough acres, and despite the good ground, a lot of negative issues that held back total yield.
So, it's gonna be hard to tell you a good fair rent price from far away.

This is the place! Bought
