Abstract: Excerpt from the report Summary: A total of 4,850 corporate county units operating about 13 million acres of land were found in the 25 States included in this report. Such units represented less than 1 percent of all commercial farms and 5 percent of the land in farms in these States. About one-third of the total number and two-thirds of the total acreage in corporate county units was in 2 States--Florida and Texas. In Florida, 9 percent of the total number of commercial farms and 31 percent of the land in farms were corporate. Several States in the Northeast also had a relatively high proportion of their commercial farms operated by corporations.
