Agriculture
Agriculture is a major industry in the United States and the country is a net exporter of food.
Corn, turkeys, tomatoes, potatoes, peanuts, and sunflower seeds constitute some of the major
holdovers from the agricultural endowment of the Americas. In the U.S., farms spread from the
colonies westward along with the settlers. In cooler regions, wheat was often the crop of choice
when lands were newly settled, leading to a "wheat frontier" that moved westward over the
course of years. Also very common in the antebellum Midwest was farming corn while raising
hogs, complementing each other especially since it was difficult to get grain to market before the
canals and railroads
