Topic Land Use: Farmland Acreage in 3 Sheepscot Counties, 1987-1997
 
Caption:  This chart shows the total acreage of farmland in Kennebec, Lincoln, and Waldo counties during the period 1987-1997. These three counties comprise most of the Sheepscot watershed. The total acreage of farmland declined from 1987-1997, likely due to conversion of farmland to residential areas. Note that the data are for the entire extent of the counties, not just the pieces that are in the Sheepscot watershed. Data were collected by the U.S. Census of Agriculture. See Info Links for more information.
