  • Nebraska Agriculture Trends Part One One in Four One in Four of Every Job in Nebraska Is Related to Agriculture
    Nebraska Agriculture Trends Part One One in Four One in four of every job in Nebraska is related to agriculture. There is a wide span of agricultural jobs in Nebraska, including careers in the areas of insurance, equipment sales and repair, technology, irrigation, engineering and many more. Expansive and Diverse Nebraska agriculture has been described as expansive and diverse with an abundance of natural resources. The landscape varies from large pastures dotted with feeding cattle, to miles of rolling hills bursting with a wide variety of crops, and everything in‐between. Ninety-One Percent of Land Nebraska’s farms and ranches utilize 45.2 million acres – 91% of the state’s total land area. Half in the Sandhills There are nearly 23 million acres (9,307,806 ha) of rangeland and pastureland in Nebraska – half of which are in the Sandhills. Most Important Asset While Nebraska has everything needed to support all types of agriculture, including abundant water, and ample amounts of cropland and pasture, many would say its most important asset is its people. One Generation to the Next Farms and ranches in Nebraska have been handed down from generation to generation, and families still serve as the hub of the state’s number one industry, agriculture. From East to West Nebraska also has the infrastructure needed to transport grain, livestock and all types of agricultural products to their intended destination. The railroads, semis, trucks and other vehicles have the necessary pathways to move from east to west and north to south throughout the state. With monikers like Cornhuskers and The Beef State, it doesn’t take long to figure out corn and cattle are two of the top commodities produced in Nebraska.
