Texas County, Oklahoma — Farm Data

Texas County, Oklahoma reported 866 farm operations in the 2022 USDA Census of Agriculture, generating $1.2B in total commodity sales and receiving $14.8M in federal farm program payments. Net cash farm income for the county came in at $298.0M, which ranks the county #1 of 77 counties in Oklahoma by commodity sales. These are not sample surveys or rolling averages — they are the consolidated returns of every farm operation that NASS enumerators counted at the parcel level for the 2022 Census, the most comprehensive snapshot of US agriculture that the federal government produces.

Land use patterns in the county tell the deeper story. Of the 1,264,084 acres in agricultural land, 678,557 acres is cropland (53.7% of ag land), with the balance in pasture, rangeland, woodland, or farmsteads. Average farm size sits at 1,460 acres, a figure that signals whether the local industry is dominated by large commercial operations or by smaller family farms — a distinction that directly shapes which USDA programs flow into the county and how eligible operators qualify for conservation, insurance, and disaster assistance.

Reading county-level data correctly means placing it in context. Commodity sales and government payments move together but for different reasons: sales rise with favorable weather and prices, while payments rise when yields fall, prices collapse, or conservation enrollment expands.
