WHY ARE THERE DIFFERENT NUMBERS REGARDING AMERICAN INDIAN AND ALASKA NATIVE FARM OPERATORS?
Data for American Indian and Alaska Native farm operators appears in Table 43 in Volume 1 and also in Appendix B. The information in Table 43 reflects data collected on individual census reports for any operators (up to the three per operation) whose race was singly identified as American Indian or Alaska Native. Operators reported as American Indian or Alaska Native and any other race are shown in the category “More than one race.” Many of the individuals shown in the “More than one race” category in Table 43 reported American Indian or Alaska Native as one of their races.
