Analysis
NAICS 111199 is the 2022 national industry for all other grain farming, part of 11119 (Other Grain Farming). Census lists 8 example activities under it in the official index.
Census lists 5 related activities that belong elsewhere, most often in 111140, 111150, 111160 and 111219. Businesses that do several things are classified by their primary activity, the one that generates the most value, so check those boundaries before settling on this code.
Its index entries, the activities Census uses to assign businesses to this code, include barley farming, field and seed production, broomcorn farming, buckwheat farming and milo farming, field and seed production, among 8 in all.
Its goods appear in 23 statistical lines of the US tariff schedule, mostly under headings 1008 (buckwheat, millet and canary seeds; other cereals…), 1003 (barley) and 1002 (rye). That link is how import data is matched to domestic producers, for example in trade-remedy cases.
For example, growing wheat are classified in 111140 (Wheat Farming) instead.
County Business Patterns does not cover crop and animal production, so there is no establishment count for it; farms are counted by the Census of Agriculture instead.
