Abstract
ILLINOIS RANKS HIGH as an agricultural state. It stands fourth among the states in the acreage of crops grown, third in the value of crops marketed, and second in the value of livestock and livestock products marketed.
Natural conditions in Illinois, which lies largely in the corn belt, normally favor profitable farming. The average productivity of Illinois soils is high, much of the land is level or gently rolling, and the climate is varied enough to make a wide range of products possible
