3 Agriculture Agriculture is an important economic sector in Texas and the United States. Many businesses, financial institutions and individuals are involved in providing supplies, credit and services to farmers and ranchers in processing and marketing commodities. With increasing demand for food and fiber worldwide, and because of the importance of agricultural exports to the U.S. trade balance, agriculture is destined to play an even greater role in the future. Texas ranked fourth during 2016, behind California, Iowa, and Nebraska among states in cash receipts. A large area of productive soils and excellent export and transportation facilities favor farming and ranching operations in the state. Texas ranks first in sales of cattle and calves, sheep and wool, goats and mohair, and cotton; and in the value of farm real estate, number of farms and ranches, and amount of farm and ranch land. The number of farms in Texas has decreased from 506,000 in 1931 to 240,000 in 2017, with an average farm size of 540 acres. In 2017, farms with sales of less than $10,000 gross value totaled 149,000, or 62 percent of all Texas farm operations, but used only 12 percent of the land. Operations that had $10,000 to $99,999 in sales totaled 70,200 farms or 29 percent of the group, and 32 percent of acreage. Farms with sales of $100,000 to $249,999 totaled 9,000, used 16 percent of land, and accounted for 4 percent of farms. The operations with $250,000 and over in sales totaled 11,800, or 5 percent of farms, and included 40 percent of land. The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and The Texas A&M AgriLife Research, agencies of The Texas A&M University System, support the State=s agricultural industry through education and research.
