  • Values are nominal dollars in thousands, not adjusted for inflation; 2015 and 2025 figures are not directly comparable without a deflator.
  • 2025 is the newest year with Idaho figures; the file's national rows extend to a 2026 forecast not yet published for Idaho.
  • Food Grains equals Wheat; Meat Animals equals Cattle and Calves plus Hogs; Poultry/Eggs equals Chickens, Eggs and Turkeys; Crops plus Livestock and Products equals All Commodities.
  • A commodity reported in one year but not the other is omitted for the year it was not reported, not recorded as zero.

Census of Agriculture: farms and sales

Caveats

  • Market value of agricultural products sold is in current dollars for each Census year, not adjusted for inflation, so years are not directly comparable.
  • USDA withholds some county figures for disclosure avoidance; land in farms is withheld for Boise and Shoshone counties in 2012.
  • State-level figures cover 50 states; the Census of Agriculture's state aggregation has never included the District of Columbia.
