Data was created, verified, or obtained from WSDA, USDA and outside entities such as Conservation Districts and managed with editable feature services.  This dataset contains crop data collected and stored for Washington as of 12/31/2022. It consists of polygons representing individual crop field borders with attributes including crop, irrigation, TRS, county, source, and acres. Attributes are updated by WSDA staff via ground surveys or by using outside sources such as USDA's NASS Cropland Data Layer. Outside resources are used whenever possible, such as obtaining data from producers, enlisting resources from Conservation Districts, etc. This land use data is published annually as a file geodatabase but due to limited resources, the entire state is not updated each year. WSDA strives to maintain a minimum 4 year refresh schedule, with a target goal of every 2 or 3 years, especially in the irrigated agricultural basins. For this reason, the data is not statistical, but provides an accurate agricultural snapshot in time for each geographic area.  WSDA partners with USDA NASS and provides mapping data for the Cropland Data Layer satellite project, especially in areas not well served by USDA FSA data.
