Want to see how your yields compared to National/State/County Averages?

The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), which is a division of the USDA, has a very good and interactive web site that anyone can access to get a wide variety of reports. A sampling of information you can obtain from this site is crop progress reports; average yields for crops in the United States, Montana, or Richland County; national, state, and county rankings in specific crops and much more.

There is so much valuable information included on this site that it would be hard to list all of the reports you can find. To access the site, simply log onto http://www.nass.usda.gov/. Once there you will want to click on the data and statistics tab and the reports are fairly easy to find from there.
