Description
This photograph was taken in West Virginia. It was a cloudy rainy day as I passed through this area. This strip on Highway 35 of rolling hills and mountains is plentiful in farms; this one is one of my favorites because of the old barn. West Virginia agriculture facts:
· West Virginia leads the nation in percentage of family-owned farms.
· Hay is West Virginia’s leading crop.
· West Virginia ranked tenth in the nation in apple production in 2006 with 90 million pounds.
· West Virginia is home to approximately 1,000 agribusinesses ranging from cottage industries
· to farmers’ markets to agritourism enterprises.
· West Virginia produces nearly 90 million broilers (meat chickens) annually.
· West Virginia produces approximately 400,000 cattle each year.
· Commercial timberland covers about 80 percent of West Virginia’s land.
