What the Pend Oreille County Farm Data Shows
Pend Oreille County, Washington reads as a MIXED county with TRACE 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 lowest national quintile, under $3.41 an acre, so program receipts are a marginal line beside market revenue.
The state comparisons on this page use the 39 of 39 Washington counties with published commodity sales, averaging the two central values when the count is even. Payments per acre use the 37 counties that report both receipts and acreage, and net-income peers are the 31 that reported a profit.
