San Benito County’s total crop value increased 11 percent to about $360 million in 2015, the agricultural commissioner reported Tuesday.
Agricultural Commissioner Karen Overstreet told San Benito County supervisors the positive news during department-head announcements of Tuesday’s board meeting.
Overstreet reported the 11 percent hike and estimated $360 million total value, which topped the 2014 value of more than $328 million and $330 million in 2013.
The agricultural commissioner’s office releases the crop report each summer. Overstreet said the office planned to post the detailed report on the county website.
Look back for more.
