That number is deceiving, and may drastically change in the future. For instance, I know a guy that is an incorporated farmer. Probly only about half of the land in the operation is his and included in the incorporation. The other half is mainly owned by his mother in law, and his son, and in their names. But it is all one operation with hired employees. They probly farm 4 or 5 thousand acres.
Another thing that is happening in my neck of the woods is land has gotten higher than it should be. The only people buying it is doctors, lawyers, and big business owners that don't farm. They in turn cash rent it to incorporated farmers. So that land is being farmed corporately, but listed in the court house as being owned by an individual.
