According to the newly released ag census, the economic impact of agriculture boomed in 2022, reaching over $100 million in market value of products sold compared to just $69 million in 2017. Livestock, including poultry, beef, and dairy, increased by $32 million, while grain crops increased by about $4 million.

While the market value of agriculture products increased, both farmland acres and the number of farms decreased by 17% and 7%, respectively. Adair County ranked 2nd in Kentucky for milk sales and 9th for beef sales.
