Max Armstrong takes a deeper look at a report reviewing the number of farms in the United States - which is a farm that earned at least $1,000 in a year.

Farm Progress America is a daily look at key issues in agriculture. It is produced and presented by Max Armstrong, veteran farm broadcaster and host of This Week in Agribusiness.
