Arkansas, or “The Natural State,” currently devotes 36% of its land to farmland. This does not mean that the state relies heavily on agriculture, however. Since the 1970’s, Arkansas has experienced an economic boom due to corporate expansion of the state’s northwest and tourism advertising.
Bentonville houses the world’s largest public corporation (2007), Wal-Mart. Other global companies founded in Arkansas’ northwestern region include J.B. Hunt and Tyson Foods. The automobile industry has also begun to grow in Arkansas, focusing in the eastern part of the state. Agriculture in Arkansas consists primarily of livestock (poultry, followed by cattle and calves), while it still maintains as the leading producer of rice in the United States, followed by crops such as cotton, corn and wheat.
