2022 Agriculture Profile


Image of 2022 Ag ProfileIn Kentucky, farming and agriculture ranges from large-scale irrigated cash grains operations in the western region to equine and general farm enterprises in central Kentucky and small-scale farming in eastern counties.  The Census of Agriculture counts any farm from which “$1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the census year.”  The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) conducts the Census of Agriculture every 5 years (in years that end with a “2” or a “7”).
