Agriculture in Idaho information


Agriculture in Idaho is an important part of the state's way of life and represents a substantial portion of the state's economy. 20% of Idaho's sales each year are generated by agriculture and food/beverage processing. In 2015, agricultural products were valued at $7,463,718,000, with slightly over half of that from the sale of livestock and dairy products.[1] Cattle is the second largest agriculture sector of the state and Idaho is the third largest producer of milk and cheese in the United States.[1] Although dairy plays a significant role in the economy, Idaho is most known for its potatoes. Idaho is the number one producer of potatoes in the nation and contributes to 32% of the country's production.[1] Idaho has nearly 25,000 farms and ranches spread over 11.8 million acres[1] of land that produces more than 185 different commodities. The state's production ranks in the top ten in the nation in nearly 30 of the commodities it produces.[1]
