What is a dataset?
NASS offers a wide range of data sets. Data sets are files of historical data tracking many agricultural items, some dating back as far as 1866, depending on the commodity you desire. The information is commodity specific and contains many category breakdowns including U.S., State, and county crop and livestock data. Important Note: Always view the README.DOC at the top of the listing for important information regarding the data and the index codes used for the agricultural items.
