Quick stats on ag census now online
The United States Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) released the Quick Stats containing 2002 Census of Agriculture data on the Internet.
Quick Stats is an Online Agricultural Statistics Database and provides access to significant U.S. and State information. It provides the ability to query by commodity, State(s) and county(s). The query dataset can be downloaded for easy use in your database or spreadsheet. Census of Agriculture queriable datasets include farm numbers, land in farms, and average size of farm.
Also included in Quick Stats are datasets on other surveys and reports published by NASS. County level queries are limited to five years because the dataset may be very large. Some commodities and data items have historical series back to 1866.
To find Quick Stats online, go to the www.nass.usda.gov/census/ website, and then click on "Quick Stats" under the "Specialty Products" section.
Census printed publications are available for sale through the National Technical Information Service at 1-800-999-6779. Production, economic, demographic and environmental facts about U.S. agriculture are provided through regularly scheduled weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reports. For additional agricultural information, visit NASS online at www.usda.gov/nass for aggregate facts and figures or call 1-800-727-9540.
