What the Logan County Farm Data Shows
Logan County, Colorado reads as a MIXED county with MID federal payment intensity. In the NASS Census vocabulary this portal uses, cropland is 25% to 50% of agricultural land with the balance in pasture, range, woodland or farmsteads, so row-crop and livestock-side programs are both in play; payments per agricultural acre fall in the middle national quintile, $6.98 to $11.30 an acre, a mid-range level of federal support for the land base.
The state comparisons on this page use the 60 of 63 Colorado counties with published commodity sales (3 withheld by NASS to protect respondents are left out, not counted as zero), averaging the two central values when the count is even. Payments per acre use the 57 counties that report both receipts and acreage, and net-income peers are the 44 that reported a profit.
