  • See Texas's full state profile behind its share of the archive. View state profile
  • Download the same archive as a CSV, no sign-up, CC0. Download CSV

Tools read the ERS state-payment series only; the 2022 NASS Census county totals are a separate population and are never mixed into these figures.

Counts, shares, and dollar totals on this page are rendered from USDA ERS Farm Income and Wealth Statistics; the county count is from the USDA NASS 2022 Census of Agriculture, no number is typed in by an editor. Tools do not mix Census county payment totals into the ERS state series. See our editorial standards & corrections policy, the methodology behind these numbers, or report a data error.
