The average size of farms in the United States has seen a steady increase over the last decade. In 2024, the average farm size reached 466 acres, up from 418 acres in 2007. Between 2006 and 2007 there was a sudden drop in average farm size, but in recent years it has recovered and once again reached the same levels as its peak in 2006. Agriculture in the United States In 2023, there were about 1.9 million farms in the United States, down from 2.2 million in 2007. It appears that as average farm size has increased, the number of individual farms in the United States has decreased. Texas is home to the highest number of farms of any U.S. state, with 231,000 farms as of 2023. Major crops in the United States The United States produces a wide variety of crops. Though the production volumes of some major crops, such as wheat, have fluctuated considerably since 2000, the production of vegetables for processing has been on the rise in recent years. Grapes, apples, and oranges are the most produced fruits in the United States, with the majority of grapes being grown in California.

This statistic depicts the number and average size of farms in the United States from 2012 to 2024. The total number of farms in the U.S. in 1900 was 5,739,657, as compared to1,880,000 in 2024.

The Census of Agriculture provides a detailed picture every five years of U.S. farms and ranches and the people who operate them. Conducted by USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service, the 2012 Census of Agriculture collected more than six million data items directly from farmers. The Ag Census Web Maps application makes this information available at the county level through a few clicks. The maps and accompanying data help users visualize, download, and analyze Census of Agriculture data in a geospatial context. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Ag Census Web Maps. File Name: Web Page, url: https://www.nass.usda.gov/Publications/AgCensus/2012/Online_Resources/Ag_Census_Web_Maps/Overview/index.php/ The interactive map application assembles maps and statistics from the 2012 Census of Agriculture in five broad categories:

Crops and Plants – Data on harvested acreage for major field crops, hay, and other forage crops, as well as acreage data for vegetables, fruits, tree nuts, and berries. Economics – Data on agriculture sales, farm income, government payments from conservation and farm programs, amounts received from loans, a broad range of production expenses, and value of buildings and equipment. Farms – Information on farm size, ownership, and Internet access, as well as data on total land in farms, land use, irrigation, fertilized cropland, and enrollment in crop insurance programs. Livestock and Animals – Statistics on cattle and calves, cows and heifers, milk cows, and other cattle, as well as hogs, sheep, goats, horses, and broilers. Operators – Statistics on hired farm labor, tenure, land rented or leased, primary occupation of farm operator, and demographic characteristics such as age, sex, race/ethnicity, and residence location.

In 2024, there were about 1.88 million farms in the United States. However, the number of farms has been steadily dropping since the year 2007, when there were about 2.2 million farms in the United States. U.S. farms In 2007, the average size of farms in the United States was the smallest it had been since the year 2000. As the number of farms in the United States decrease, the average size of farms increases. Texas, the largest state in the contiguous United States, also contains the highest number of farms, at 231 thousand in 2023. Organic farming in the United States The United States has over 2.3 million hectares of organic agricultural land as of 2021. In 2022, organic food sales in the United States amounted to almost 59 billion euros, making it the largest market for organic food worldwide. In 2021, the number of certified organic farms in the United States reached 17,445, up from about 14,185 farms in 2016.

Graph and download economic data for Net farm income, USDA (B1448C1A027NBEA) from 1967 to 2023 about USDA, agriculture, Net, income, GDP, and USA.

What?

A dataset containing 313 total variables from 33 secondary sources. There are 261 unique variables, and 52 variables that have the same measurement but are reported for a different year; e.g. average farm size in 2017 (CapitalID: N27a) and 2022 (N27b). Variables were grouped by the community capital framework's seven capitals—Natural (96 total variables), Cultural (38), Human (39), Social (40), Political (18), Financial (67), & Built (15)—and temporally and thematically ordered. The geographic boundary is NOAA NCEI's corn and soybean belt (figure below), which stretches across 18 states and includes N=860 counties/observations. Cover crop data for the 80 Crop Reporting Districts in the boundary are also included for 2015-2021.

Why?

Comprehensively assessing how community capital clustered variables, for both farmers and nonfarmers, impact conservation practices (and perennial groundcover) over time helps to examine county-level farm conservation agriculture practices in the context of community development. We contribute to the robust U.S. cover crop literature a better understanding of how overarching cultural, social, and human factors influence conservation agriculture practices to encourage better farm management practices. Analyses of this Dataverse will be presented as recomendations for farmers, nonfarmers, ag-adjacent stakeholders, and community leaders.

How?

Variables used in this dataset range 20 years, from 2004-2023, though primary analyses focus on data collected between 2017-2024, primarily 2017 and 2022 (NASS Ag Census years). First, JAM-K requested, accessed, and downloaded data, most of which was already publically available. Next, JAM-K cleaned the data and aggregated into one dataset, and made it publically available on Google Drive and Zenodo.

What is 'new' or corrected in version 2?

Edited/amended: Carroll, KY is now spelled correctly (two 'l's, not one); variable names, full and abbreviated, were updated to include the data year; Pike County's (IL) FIPS has been corrected from its wrong 17153 (same as Pulaski County) to 17149 (correct fips), and all Pike County (IL) data has been correctly amended; Farming dependent (ERS) updated for all variables; Data for built capital variables irrCorn17, irrSoy17, irrHcrp17, tractor17, and combine17 were incorrect for v.1, but were corrected for v.2; Several variable labels aggregated by Wisconsin University's Population Health Institute's County Health Rankings and Roadmaps were corrected to have the data's original source and years included, rather than citing CHR&R as the source (except for CHR&R's originally-produced values such as quartiles or rank scores); variables were reorganized by hypothesized community capital clusters (Natural -> Built), and temporally within each cluster.

Added: 55 variables, mostly from the 2022 Ag Census, and v2.1 added a .pdf file with descriptives of data sources and years, and a .sav file.

Omitted: Four variables deemed irrelevant to the study; V1 codebook's "years internally available" column.
