It depends on the crop. USDA's 2022 Census puts Vermont at about 50 acres of alfalfa & hay per operation down to roughly 50 acres of alfalfa & hay. See the table above for each crop.
Is operation size the same as a single field?
No — these figures are crop acreage per farm, and most farms split that across several fields, so an individual field is typically smaller. Trace your field on satellite with the field mapper for its real acreage.
