Abstract

The number of non-reported county yields by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is increasing. This article explores factors that impact county corn and soybean yields that are not reported by USDA NASS. Factors such as county, land coverage, and average farm size are used to explain the likelihood of a yield being reported. We find that counties that have a high number of acres concentrated in a few farms may not have a NASS yield reported due to NASS reporting requirements.
