Satellite crop map

USDA NASS Cropland Data Layer 2025, a satellite land-cover map, read at each farm parcel's map point (the most common class of the 3 by 3 cells around it); parcels whose land type on the county roll is agricultural; read Oct 18, 2026. Shares are of those parcels' acres, each parcel counted whole under the class at its center, so they are not planted acres: USDA's planted and harvested acreage is the NASS county estimate (the yields table where it prints). Public domain.
