One thought on “Report: Indiana has lost 350K acres of farmland, but productivity rises

  1. As some may recall, the summer of 2012 was blisteringly hot. There was a run of 100+ degree days and drought. Query: did those factors produce the dip in farm production?

    Was this a case of ISDA selective use of data?
