## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

## Land and Farm Property Scraper: Extract Real Estate Listings Fast

***

### What Is Land and Farm?

Land and Farm (landandfarm.com) is a specialized marketplace for agricultural and rural properties across the United States. It hosts tens of thousands of listings ranging from small residential lots to large farm acreages, serving buyers, sellers, and brokers nationwide. Manually extracting property data from search results is tedious and error-prone — the **Land and Farm Property Scraper** automates this entirely, turning property listings into clean, structured datasets ready for analysis or integration.

***

### Overview

The **Land and Farm Property Scraper** crawls search result pages and extracts comprehensive property details from landandfarm.com listings. It is ideal for:

- **Real estate investors** tracking market trends and identifying opportunities by region
- **Property data aggregators** building multi-source listing databases
- **Market researchers** analyzing land pricing, acreage distribution, and regional patterns
- **Real estate professionals** monitoring competitor activity and market saturation
- **API developers** who need structured property data for downstream applications

Key advantages include support for large-scale scraping (up to 200 items per URL), flexible URL management, and graceful error handling via `ignore_url_failures`.

***

### Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with three core parameters:

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.landandfarm.com/search/lots-in-south-carolina-for-sale/"
  ],
  "max_items_per_url": 200,
  "ignore_url_failures": true
}
```

| Field | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| `urls` | Array | Search result page URLs to scrape | `["https://www.landandfarm.com/search/lots-in-south-carolina-for-sale/"]` |
| `max_items_per_url` | Integer | Maximum properties to extract per URL (1–200) | `200` |
| `ignore_url_failures` | Boolean | If `true`, continues scraping if a URL fails; if `false`, halts on error | `true` |

**Tips for best results:**

- Copy full search URLs directly from your browser's address bar
- Use filters (state, price range, acreage) to narrow searches before scraping
- Set `max_items_per_url` based on expected results per page (default: 100)
- Enable `ignore_url_failures: true` for large batch runs to prevent interruptions

### How to Use

1. **Find search URLs** — Go to landandfarm.com and apply filters (state, price, acreage). Copy the resulting search page URL.
2. **Paste URLs** — Add the URL(s) to the `urls` array in the input JSON.
3. **Set item limit** — Adjust `max_items_per_url` (typically 100–200 for comprehensive scraping).
4. **Enable error handling** — Set `ignore_url_failures: true` if scraping multiple URLs.
5. **Run the scraper** — Start the actor and monitor progress in real-time.
6. **Export data** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for analysis, database import, or further processing.

**Best practices:**

- Scrape during off-peak hours to reduce server load
- For large datasets, split searches by state or price range
- Use the `latitude` and `longitude` fields to create maps or geo-fenced analyses
- Monitor `last_updated` to track data freshness

***

### Use Cases & Business Value

- **Investment analysis:** Compare price-per-acre across regions to identify undervalued properties
- **Market intelligence:** Track supply trends, average prices, and listing velocity by county
- **Competitive monitoring:** Monitor competitor land purchases and sales patterns
- **Lead generation:** Build property databases for targeted marketing campaigns
- **Data aggregation:** Feed Land and Farm listings into multi-source property search platforms
- **Academic research:** Analyze agricultural land markets, demographics, and pricing dynamics

The Land and Farm Property Scraper eliminates manual data collection, delivering hundreds of properties per run with all essential information pre-structured and ready for analytics, database storage, or business intelligence tools.
