Abstract
Excerpt from the report: Distributions of the number of farms and realized gross and net income of farm operators from farming according to value of sales classes for the years 1959-63 are shown for the first time in tables 1D through 4D on pages 22-25 in this issue. Also shown for the first time (table 5D), by value of sales classes, are average per farm operator family of realized net income, income from off-farm sources and the total income from both sources combined. The estimates of income of farm operators from farming operations by value of sales classes are consistent with, and are breakdowns of, the farm income estimates regularly published in the July issue of the Farm Income Situation. Income from "off-farm" sources includes all income received by farm operators and family members from sources other than the farm operated.
