8 Farm Real Estate Values in the United States by Counties, Charles H. Barnard John Jones* INTRODUCTION Information of the type and time period presented in this report is unique. The data describe the average market value of farmland and buildings per acre for each county in the United States from 1850 to /2/ The information, collected by U.S. agricultural censuses and reported by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census, is the only statistical source available nationwide on farmland and building value for areas smaller than States. The original work on which this report is based, authored by Thomas J. Press ly and William H. Scofield in 1965, is out of print and was never widely distributed. This report reproduces the original Press ly-scofield work but updates it with data from five recent censuses, providing information for the entire period of / It thus offers an important long-term perspective on farmland values. Interest in farmland values tends to focus on current values and those of the recent past. Popular interest, in particular, seems to wax and wane with the rate of change in farmland values. The historical data presented in this publication transcend popular interest and provide a valuable complement to the annual State indexes and dollar values published in USDA's Outlook and Situation series. This compendium will be useful for agricultural historians, land market analysts, and others who desire a long-term perspective on the values of U.S. farm real estate. *Charles H. Barnard is an agricultural economist and John Jones is a statistical assistant. Both are assigned to the Natural Resource Economics Division, Economic Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, DC. 1/ Some counties were not organized until after Agricultural censuses are no longer conducted in several other counties that no longer have any farmland according to the current definition of farm. 2/ In the census, the term farmland appears as farm land. 3/ The statistics for l850-l900 had not been published prior to the Press ly- Scofield book, and those for l9l0-59 had never been published in one volume. 1

9 DATA CONSIDERATIONS Table 1 shows average per acre value of farmland and buildings in the United States, as reported by the census. Table 2 shows average values of farmland and buildings for each State and county. The average value reported for each county is a summary statistic that masks a great deal of variation among individual parcels and types of land within each county. Such heterogeneity is true of land in all counties, but is particularly evident in the Mountain States, where irrigated and nonirrigated cropland and grazing land show substantial differences in value. Counties partially influenced by urban development also exhibit wide variation in the value of individual parcels. DATA SOURCES The information presented in this report was extracted from data published in 21 agricultural censuses, whose definitions and data collection procedures have changed over time. 4/ First, the acreage and uses of land defined as "land in farms" have varied substantially. Second, over time, farm real estate has incorporated increasing amounts of capital, reflecting past investments of both labor and capital. Consequently, the value of farmland and buildings no longer simply reflects the "original and indestructible properties of the soil." Third, the procedures used to collect data for agricultural censuses changed from one of complete enumeration prior to l950 to a sampling procedure for some items, including the monetary value of farmland and buildings. These and other factors that affect the comparability of statistics on farm real estate value are summarized below. Our observations on pre data draw heavily on the Pressly-Scof ield book. Definitions Evolve Since l850, when the minimum criteria defining a farm for census purposes were first established, the definition of "farm" has changed nine times. Although the definition of farm has varied from census to census, Press ly and Scofield determined that two concepts have remained constant: o The land should be under the control of one person, and o The land should be used for or connected with agricultural operations (.1).5/ For the 1850 and l860 censuses, the term "farm" applied to a place where a minimum of $l00 worth of agricultural products were produced for home use or for sale. Between 1870 and 1940 there were no criteria specifying minimum value of production. In the 1945, 1950, and 1954 censuses, an agricultural "place" had to produce a minimum of $150 of agricultural products for home use or for sale to be counted as a farm. The definition used for the 1959, 1964, and 1969 censuses counted as a farm any place with fewer than 10 acres from which $250 or more of agricultural products were sold or normally would have 4/ From 1850 through 1920, information related to the value of farmland and buildings was collected in connection with the general census of population. 5/ Underlined numbers in parentheses identify items cited in References at the end of this report. 2

10 been sold during the census year, or any place of 10 acres or more from which $50 or more of agricultural products were sold or normally would have been sold during the census year. The current definition, which has been in effect since the l974 census, defines a farm as any place from which $l,000 or more of agricultural products were sold or normally would have been sold during the census year. Changes in the definition of a farm cause some degree of noncomparabi lity between census data. To the extent that farmland and buildings encompassed by one definition differ in value from farmland and buildings encompassed by an alternative definition, values reported in this volume may not be directly comparable over time. However, the differences in value are generally expected to be negligible. In l965, for instance, Pressly and Scofield concluded that:...the varying definitions in the agricultural censuses of what constituted a 'farm* have not affected seriously the comparability of the monetary value figures collected in the different censuses (1). The agricultural censuses have always gathered information on farm value by eliciting from farm operators the total value of their "land and buildings" and the total number of acres in their farms. Although individual farm operators provided the estimate of market value, Pressly and Scofield concluded that census enumerators may have provided occasional discretionary assistance.

Data for years l are from U.S. Census of Agriculture: 1982, Volume 1, United States Summary and State Data, l983, p. 1. 3

11 Before l920, census report users had to calculate county per acre values themselves by dividing the number of acres in farms into total monetary value of farmland and buildings for each county. Since l925, however, all agricultural censuses have published per acre values for each county. Capitalization Broadens The monetary value of farm "land and buildings" elicited by the agricultural censuses has always been interpreted to be an estimate of the "current market value of farm land, fences, permanent improvements and buildings" (l). Thus, the monetary values reported in this volume reflect capitalized returns from the use of an increasingly complex bundle of productive resources, and not just returns from land. Further, the land incorporates increasing amounts of capital through time, reflecting investments made both on the farm itself and in public improvements in adjacent communities. According to Pressly and Scofield in l965: Expenditures by the federal and state governments in the recent past for highways, dams, flood con trol structures, and conservation have become reflected to an increasing extent in market values of farm real estate (l). Capital expenditures by Federal, State, and local governments and by individuals for irrigation, drainage, and conservation were documented by Pavelis (2). The monetary value of farm "land and buildings" in many counties also reflects increased demand for farmland for nonagricultural purposes. As population grows and urban areas expand, farmland becomes increasingly valuable for both rural and urban residences and for recreation. This consumer-driven demand for agricultural land is usually reflected in higher prices for farmland near populated areas. Data Collection Procedures Evolve Before l950, the census* goal was the complete enumeration of each farm in the United States. From l950 on, however, the Bureau of the Census adopted sampling procedures for some census items, including the monetary value of farms. The sampling rate has remained at about 20 percent, approximately every fifth farm. In addition, all operators of "large" or "specified" farms are asked the value question. Since l969, the censuses have been conducted primarily by mail rather than by census enumerators. In l978, the mail procedure was supplemented by direct enumeration of all households in selected segments of rural America. No direct enumeration took place in l982 (3). 4
