Rent is dollars per acre, NASS county survey; an older year is shown beside the figure. Land value is the census of agriculture estimate; a star marks a value flagged to read with care. Corn yield is the median of published years. Claims per $100 of coverage are the last ten closed crop years. Drought weeks are the share of weeks since 2000 with half the county or more in D2 drought or worse. n/a means the source withheld the figure or the record does not carry it.
