Farming and ranching are just about as Missouri as it gets. Our state's fertile land has been farmed for hundreds of years and we are one of the nation's top ag states, ranking second in the nation for number of farms. From soybeans, to corn, to hay, rice, cotton, cattle, hogs and turkeys, Missouri farmers and ranchers are producing a variety of commodities the world needs. And they're doing it well. Our state runs an $88.4 billion ag industry, mostly consisting of family farms, showing not only do we have a rich history of farming, but our future as a global ag leader looks very bright.
