Agriculture and Natural Resources
Agriculture in Craig County generates $3.6 Million annually on 228 farms. 6,939 cattle provide $1.9 million in income; 550 acres of crops generate $377,000 in income. Extension provides information and programs so people can help themselves.
Issues are determined by local producers in the Craig County Extension Leadership Council (ELC) and addressed in newsletters, programs, and other suitable methods. Upon request, individuals can obtain information to meet their particular needs or problems.
Farm issues relating to livestock, crops, management, profitability, and care of our natural resources are priority topics.
Homeowners, landowners, and the public frequently use Extension information to improve their lives. Extension provides science-based information to improve the lives and incomes of farm families and the community.
