Abstract: The results of this analysis based on the 2007 Census of Agriculture show that agriculture remains a critical component of Iowa's overall economic well-being. Iowa agriculture is connected to a large integrated set of industries -- from the production of agricultural commodities to food and feed processing to agricultural input manufacturing and many other ag-support industries. Iowa's agriculture and ag-related industries have maintained or increased their share of the state's total output since a previous study based on 2002 U.S. Ag Census data.
