Custer: Direct sales

Here we report the number of farms that sell at least some of their products directly to individuals for human consumption, as well as the value of these product sales.
 
In Custer in 2012:
  • the value of agricultural products sold directly to individuals was $34,226, and
  • the number of farms with direct sales was 11. 
 

To get the most out of this indicator . . .

Ask questions:

· Is the number of farms selling agricultural products directly to consumers increasing or decreasing?

· Is the value of agricultural products sold directly to consumers increasing or decreasing?

Look at other indicators:

· “Agriculture: Number of farms" - How does your county rank by number of farms and proportion of Idaho's farms?

· “Agriculture: Value of agricultural products sold” – How does your county rank by value of agricultural products: crops vs livestock?

· “Employment by industry” - What percentage of all employment is in the agriculture industry?

 Dig deeper:

· Download data for your county and state to see the value of agricultural products sold directly from year to year.

Note: The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of inflation. Here we adjusted dollar values by the CPI-U, which is the most commonly used CPI. Using the CPI to put dollar values in “real” terms makes it easier to see “inflation-free” change over time. Our base year is 2021, which means all dollar values are in terms of 2021 dollars.
