FFF cover 2017

This publication provides a statistical profile of two industries, FARMING and FOOD. It is divided into three parts. We hope this information will be useful to you as you communicate with farmers and non-farmers alike. The first part, "Farming in Illinois," focuses on production agriculture with emphasis on Illinois.

The second part emphasizes the important link between "Agriculture and the Environment" in the United States.

The third part, "Food in the United States," focuses on expenditures for and consumption of food nationwide.
