Overview

U.S. and State Farm Income and Wealth Statistics

These are the latest data concerning the farm income forecast, national and State net value added, net cash income, cash receipts, government payments, the balance sheet, production expenses, capital replacement costs, number of farms, land in farms, and real estate values.

Data are updated three times a year. The February release provides the first forecast for the current year and a revision of the prior year's forecast. The August release converts the prior year's farm income and balance sheet forecasts to estimates and adds farm income State-level estimates, revises previous years' estimates, and updates the current year's forecast. The November release updates the current year's forecast.

The data are as of August 28, 2012 unless otherwise noted. The next release will be November 27, 2012.
