Statistical Methodology Survey Procedures: The estimates of land values in this report are based primarily on the June Area Survey, conducted during the first two weeks of June. This annual survey uses a complete, probability-based land-area sampling frame. A sample of approximately 10,500 segments of land is selected, each approximately one square mile in size. Enumerators collecting data for the June Area Survey contact all agricultural producers operating land within the boundaries of the sampled land segments and record land value information for cropland and pasture within these segments. They also collect an estimated value of all land and buildings for the operator's entire farming operation and the estimated percent change from the previous year. Survey reported data are reviewed for reasonableness and consistency by comparing with other data reported in the survey and with data reported within the segment the previous year. Estimating Procedures: Once the data are summarized, each Regional Field Office (RFO) conducts an analysis of the summarized indications and any other available information for their States. RFOs then set estimates for land values and submit these recommendations along with their assessment of survey and other administrative information to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB). Survey data are also summarized for Regional and National levels and reviewed independently of each State's review. National targets are established by the ASB. After RFO recommendations are submitted, the ASB reviews the RFO estimates and supporting comments, and any conflicts with targeted National levels are resolved. The Regional and United States estimates are weighted by the amount of cropland and pasture in each State, based on the most recent Census of Agriculture. For the purposes of this report, cropland pastured is defined as cropland. Published Estimates: State averages are not published for States with limited reports to ensure confidentiality of individual operations. While the June Area Survey is the primary source of data for the estimates, supplemental survey data and potential previous year revisions are also considered, as described in the more detailed NASS Land Values Methodology and Quality Measures publication. As such, the estimates reflect an average of land values for the year. Revision Policy: For non-census years, land values are subject to an annual revision the following year. After the 5-year Census of Agriculture is completed, land value estimates for the non-census years are subject to a final historic revision. The basis for revision must be supported by additional data that directly affect the level of the estimate. Terms and Definitions Farm: Any establishment from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were sold or would normally be sold during the year. Government payments are included in sales. Farm real estate value: The value at which all land and buildings used for agricultural production, including dwellings, could be sold under current market conditions, if allowed to remain on the market for a reasonable amount of time. Cropland value: The value of land used to grow field crops, vegetables, or land harvested for hay. Land that switches back and forth between cropland and pasture should be valued as cropland. Hay land, idle cropland, and cropland enrolled in government conservation programs should be valued as cropland. Irrigated cropland value: The value of cropland that normally receives or has the potential to receive water by artificial means to supplement natural rainfall. Irrigated cropland may consist of both land that will or will not be irrigated during the current year, but still has the facilities and equipment to do so. Irrigation facilities and equipment such as wells, pumps, canals, ditches, reservoirs, lakes, tanks, ponds, rivers, streams or creeks are usually present or on nearby acres. Non-irrigated cropland value: The value of cropland that only receives water by natural rainfall. Pasture, grazing, and grassland value: The value of land that is normally grazed by livestock. Pasture does not need to have livestock grazing on it at the time of interview or during the current year in order to be valued as pasture or grazing land. Statistical Bulletin Publication Schedule Statistical Bulletins (SB): The National Agricultural Statistics Service will issue a series of nineteen bulletins containing final estimates for agricultural data series based on the review of the 2017 Census of Agriculture and other information.
