Unstandardized choropleth maps


Unstandardized choropleth maps utilize numbers when displayed. This map shows Forage-Land use for all Hay and all Haylage, Grass Silage and Greenchop Harvested Acres, in 2002. This type of map would be useful for a student majoring in any of the agriculture sciences or fields, or a farmer looking for certain types of land. It's interesting to see how there are more harvested acres out in the Northwest than any area in the country. I would have thought the biggest area would be the south or even the north east, since the Europeans first started to cultivate that land when they arrived here.
