CSV file missing information on Alaska and Hawaii. #8

The JSON file has both, but there is no CSV data for Alaska and Hawaii. If you show me where you got this data, I can give you a pull request.

Thanks! Good catch.

As mentioned in the README, that data is from here: http://ers.usda.gov/data-products/agricultural-productivity-in-the-us.aspx

Specifically, that data is taken from Table 19. I can only assume AK and HI weren't included because this is the continental US only, but I see no clear explanation of that fact on the page above. Let me know if you can figure out why they weren't included!

Closing this, as — even if we could find data for Alaska and Hawaii — for the purposes of that example, the missing data serves to illustrate how to handle a "no data" scenario, and there is value in that. :-)
