Detailed observation of presented data
Agriculture cost-per-lead in the aggregated “All countries available” dataset started the period well below the global benchmark and finished dramatically above it — a story of steep spikes, sharp rebounds, and rising volatility. This analysis is based on $3B worth of advertising data from our dataset, which provides strong directional benchmarks. This analysis explores ad performance trends for Agriculture in All countries available compared to the global benchmark.
Cost Per Lead (CPL) for Agriculture across All countries averaged about $63.8 over the 13-month window (June 2025–June 2026), with a low of roughly $25.21 in July 2025 and a peak near $99.66 in June 2026. By contrast the global baseline averaged about $45.6 across the same months. Agriculture began the window at $31.76 (June 2025) and ended at $99.66 (June 2026) — a gain of roughly 214% from start to finish.
Notable monthly moves include an abrupt jump from ~$25.21 in July 2025 to ~$94.08 in August 2025 (about +293%), a mid-Q4 uptick into November (~$71.17), a December dip to ~$41.43, and a sustained run higher through Q1–Q2 2026 peaking in April ($96.67) and again in June ($99.66). The selected series’ standard deviation is approximately $25.8, which is about 40% of the mean — a sign of material volatility month to month.
The cadence shows irregular seasonality rather than a smooth holiday-driven pattern. Late summer (August 2025) and spring/early summer (March–June 2026) produced the most pronounced lifts, while July and September 2025 were troughs. Q4 was mixed: November registered a sharp lift, December pulled back, and January 2026 rebounded strongly. The global baseline, by comparison, moved more quietly with a modest downward tilt into mid-2026.
These month-to-month swings translate into sharp, story-driven rhythms — steep rises followed by partial pullbacks and then sustained higher levels through the first half of 2026.
Relative to the baseline, Agriculture in All countries was uneven: it ran below the global benchmark early in the series (June–July–September 2025 were ~26–43% below the baseline) and shifted to well above baseline for much of late 2025 and 2026. The narrowest gap occurred in October 2025 (about 4% below the global CPL). The widest divergence was in June 2026, when Agriculture CPLs were roughly 184% above the global benchmark. Over the full period the Agriculture average (~$63.8) sits about 40% above the global average (~$45.6), and the series is notably more volatile than the baseline.
This narrative ties into standard framing used in Facebook Ads benchmarks and broader discussions of CPC trends, CPM analysis and CTR performance: Agriculture’s country-specific ad costs here show larger swings and a pronounced divergence from overall industry ad performance.
Understanding Cost Per Lead benchmarks for Agriculture in All countries available provides a clear view of how industry ad performance compares to global trends and how country-specific ad costs can diverge across months — a useful reference for reading Facebook Ads benchmarks, CPC trends, CPM analysis, and CTR performance within Agriculture in All countries available.
Insights & analysis of Facebook advertising costs
Facebook advertising costs vary based on many factors including industry, target audience, ad placement, and campaign objectives. In the Agriculture industry, Facebook ad costs can be influenced by seasonal trends and market competition. Geographic targeting affects ad costs based on market competition and user engagement in different regions. Different campaign objectives lead to varying costs based on how Facebook optimizes for your specific goals. The data shown represents median values across multiple campaigns, and individual results may vary based on ad quality, audience targeting, and campaign optimization.
We use the median CTR because the underlying distribution of click-through rates is highly skewed, with a small share of campaigns achieving extremely high CTRs. These outliers can inflate a simple average, making it less representative of what most advertisers actually experience. By using the median—which sits at the midpoint of all campaigns—we provide a more rigorous and realistic benchmark that reflects the true underlying data model and helps you set attainable performance expectations.
Note: This data represents industry median values and benchmarks. Your actual costs may vary based on specific targeting, ad creative quality, and campaign optimization.

A good CPL usually ranges from $10 to $50, depending on your industry and target audience. B2C offers tend to be cheaper, while B2B or high-ticket services may see CPLs over $100.
Your CPL could be high due to weak creative, irrelevant targeting, or an offer that doesn't resonate. Low engagement or poor conversion rates on your landing page can also drive up costs.
Yes. Campaigns optimized for conversions or leads tend to generate cheaper and more qualified leads compared to traffic or engagement objectives. Facebook needs clear signals to find the right users.
Focus on improving your offer, targeting the right audience, and using high-converting creative. Test native lead forms, but make sure you're still qualifying users properly.
If your goal is sales or revenue, optimizing for deeper funnel conversions is better. Optimizing for leads alone can inflate volume but hurt quality.
