Montana County Ag Project
Description: Montana’s
number 1 industry is agriculture and we rank #2 in the US with lands in farms
and ranches-which totals nearly 61 million acres! To discover more about
Montana’s agriculture industry each of you will research and create a “county
ag map” for 3 different counties. This
is a chance for you to learn about the different agriculture in Montana as well
as express your creative side!
Requirements for

agricultural products: Either

Montana? Amount of money the county makes off of agricultural products. Any
other stats/interesting facts you find that relate to agriculture in your
county.

newspaper, journals, books, encyclopedia, etc. Type these sources on a separate
piece of paper to be handed in with your final project. You must have at least 3 sources!
