The Washington State Agland Database combines land ownership, land use and assessment information with physical characteristics of the land to develop economic, social and environmental metrics about the agriculture land base. The spatially-explicit information in the database allows for analysis at the watershed, county and state level. This high-resolution dataset can produce maps, statistics and models at multiple scales. Using previously developed versions of the Parcel Database, two versions of the Agland Database were developed. This allows for a change in the agricultural land base over 10 years to be analyzed. The Agland Database is a comprehensive platform for understanding how agricultural ownership and land use is changing, thereby enabling new science and research to inform public policy analysis, debate and action.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>", "summary": "Agricultural land in Washington State is under threat of conversion to more developed land uses.
