Farmland values for Missouri counties

"The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service (USDA/NASS) collects information on the market value of agricultural land and buildings through two different procedures: the Census of Agriculture conducted four to five years and an annual survey. The table in this guide contains state and county values for Missouri land and buildings from every U.S. Census of Agriculture since 1959. The Census of Agriculture data is gathered through a complex sampling procedure that has varied through a complex sampling procedure that has varied through the years. In general, these values have been obtained by using a special version of the standard U.S. census form for farms that meet certain criteria."--First page.
