A FEW COUNTIES SHOW MORE ACRES IN AGRICULTURAL LAND THAN TOTAL ACRES IN THE COUNTY. HOW CAN THAT BE?
Data inconsistencies like this appear from time to time. Data are assigned to the county based on the county with the largest value of agricultural products produced. Therefore, if an operation reports in multiple counties on one report form, all data on the report form are published in the principal county. The summation of acreage from other counties added to the principal county acreage may cause the total agricultural land to be greater than the total acres in the county. Reweighting records for nonresponse or coverage adjusted values for land in farms may also contribute to the agricultural land in the county.
