DDS Entity Definition: V_AGCEN_GRASS_GEN

Name:

Agricultural Census Categories for Pasture

Identifier:

V_AGCEN_GRASS_GEN

Type:

Variable (V)

Text:

In some years, the Agricultural Census divided the acreage of permanent pasture, either in terms of 'for hay' and 'not for hay', or in terms of 'for mowing' or 'for grazing'. With the obvious proviso that in more recent years mown grass could be used for feed without being turned into hay, we treat these distinctions as equivalent. This simple two-way division of grassland is much the most common, and we map other more complex classifications to it.
