What are VISUAL FARMS™ ? Farms and ranches are far more than magnificent landscapes to look at ! VISUAL FARMS™ (VFARMS) is a unique, high capacity, user-friendly GIS-based commercial scale software and large database system that delivers essential and unique descriptions of American farms. A VFARM™ is a virtual representation - drawn by the software - of a farm's structure, organization, management, farm networks, production, crop types, practices, programs, payments and decision making that ultimately affect American food systems. It takes the VFARMS™ software (Patent Pending) approximately 30 seconds to describe the average American farm. VFARMS™ fills an increasing need to more strategically focus appropriate production inputs and conservation programs to support sustainable farms, food, and natural resources systems. |
VFARMS software and databases describe: 2.1 million Farms containing 3.4 million Tracts 15.5 million Farm Fields with 422.6 million acres in program crops and another 32.4 million acres in conservation programs managed by 1.5 million Grower-Operators 375 thousand Farm Business Entities 2007 (and 2003-2006) |
