West Tennessee Agriculture:
The World VIEW
In order to
appreciate the diversity of West Tennessee agriculture, you have to get
out in the field. Grab your boots and come along as we travel through
a year in West Tennessee agriculture.
Because of
our five to six month growing season, temperate climate, and adequate rainfall,
farmers in West Tennessee grow a variety of crops. Soybeans, cotton,
corn, and hay are all grown throughout West Tennessee. Other crops
such as grain sorghum and fruits and vegetables are also grown in some
parts of the region. Beef cattle and a small number of dairy cattle
can also be found in the area.
In order to
give you a complete picture, follow our journey season by season through
the different stages of crop production in our own backyard.
