What Is a Farm for Census Purposes Explained
The Census Bureau defines a farm as all land directly farmed by one person in agricultural operations, whether owned or rented. A farm may include multiple tracts under different tenures, and a minimum effort threshold—three acres, or labor by at least one person, or $250 yearly produce—converts a garden or chicken yard into a farm for census counting.
