AGRICULTURE IN ILLINOIS

Agriculture is central to the story of Illinois, and for that reason, this project is one of our highest priorities. In this collection you'll find that our interviewees discuss nearly every aspect of agriculture in the state, not just corn, soybean and livestock production, but also an amazing array of crops and commodities, and a rich diversity of professions and outlooks. We've interviewed scores of farmers and farm families, but you'll also find interviews with FFA members, extension agents, university professors, researchers, farm leaders, government officials and broadcasters.
