How many family farms were there in this county 100 years ago how many are there now?
CotyKelley
Though no numbers can be obtained, it can be said that there were far more family farms back then than there are now. But even though the total numbers are reduced due to mechanization and other labor-saving methods, the fact remains that 98% of all farms in the US are still family farms.

Still a family farm, despite the size. Here's a fascinating statistic that most don't realize: According to the EPA, 87% of all farms are individually or family-owned and operated. Corporate farms make up 4% of those farms, and only 1% of such corporate farms are solely owned and operated by other-cooperative, estates, trusts, etc. Another source (from the book Compassion by the Pound) states that the number of farms that are corporations themselves are family-owned and operated. Many, if not all such farms started small as the quaint, romantic-type farm many think of today into such large corporations.
