Abstract:
The OSU Extension Economic Information Office annually compiles estimates
of crop and livestock production and farmgate values in all 36 counties. About 70 OSU Extension and research faculty provide the estimates, based on personal knowledge, contact with industry leaders, various published and unpublished data, and, in some cases, surveys. Depending on the year, the office tracks about 130 commercial
agricultural commodities plus many more miscellaneous commodities. Some are produced in only one county; others are produced in most or all counties.
