\"Volume<\/a>California is America\u2019s agricultural leader, providing $54 billion in crops and commodities in 2014. In a word, California\u2019s farms are diverse.<\/em><\/strong> We grow approximately 400 crops and commodities, from almonds to zucchini. Our top five ag products include dairy, nuts, fruit, berries and livestock. The top ten also include leafy greens, vegetables and feed. That\u2019s unmatched variety.<\/p>\n

Our farmers are diverse, too.\u00a0<\/strong> Although California has just 2.9 percent of all the farms in America, we are home to 14.6 percent of the nation\u2019s \u201cprincipal farm operators\u201d whose origins are\u00a0 Hispanic\/Latino\/Spanish. The same goes for 35.1 percent of Asian farmers, 21.9 percent of Native Americans\/Alaskan Natives and 6.4 percent of farmers claiming more than one race, as well as 4.9 percent of female principal farm operators.<\/p>\n

\"Volume<\/a>Averaging 328 acres,<\/strong> California\u2019s 76,400 farms are considerably smaller than the national average of 434 acres. Nearly three-quarters (74.2 percent) of our farms are under 100 acres, and another15.9 percent are between 100 and 500 acres. Only 3.1 percent are more than 2,000 acres.<\/p>\n

California is the top dairy state<\/strong> with 19 percent of the nation\u2019s milk supply in 2014. Dairy farmers earned $9.36 billion for 43.6 billion pounds of milk.<\/p>\n

California also ranks first in crops<\/strong> at $30.4 billion, and we\u2019re third behind Texas and Iowa in Livestock\/Poultry at $12.3 billion.<\/p>\n

Organic continues its rise<\/strong>
\n\"Volume<\/a>In 2000, organic agriculture in California had yet to break the 1,000-farm mark, and it represented a modest 157,804 acres. Fast-forward to 2014 and we have 2,805 certified organic farms with 687,168 acres. That\u2019s 20 percent of the nation\u2019s organic farms and 18.7 percent of the nation\u2019s organic acreage.<\/p>\n

California leads the nation in organic farming with $2.2 billion<\/strong> – that\u2019s more than the rest of the top ten states combined.<\/p>\n
