Report of the Land Value Surveys Working Group to the NASS-ERS Steering Committee

Land Value Surveys Working Group

No 414526, Miscellaneous Publications from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: This working group, which was appointed by the NASS-ERS Steering Committee was given four charges. 1. Review the full range of farmland value data collected within ERS and NASS and those known to be collected outside ERS and NASS. 2. Assess the quality of available data. 3. (a) Identify the extent to which each land value data series is unique, (b) Explain why or why not the characteristics of each are essential for the use(s) to which it is put. 4. Identify options for folding the multiple surveys into fewer surveys or into one data collection program. While the review concentrated on USDA land value surveys and data, it included information on related collections on rents, grazing fees, land transfers and other topics. Attention was also given to non-USDA surveys of significance.
