This question cannot be answered because the phrase "government subsidized" is too broad. We could answer either "none" or "all of the farmland" and both answers would be correct depending on individual interpretation of the original question. Please specify which government program(s) (CRP, CSP, ACRE, etc.) you wish information for, and possibly we can answer that.
For example, the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) currently has over eight million acres enrolled.
