As Americans stock up for Thanksgiving and the rest of the holiday season, it’s easy to overlook where that food comes from. While global trade plays a role—imports account for less than 20% of the country’s food and beverage spending—most of what Americans eat is still grown or raised at home, highlighting how heavily the U.S. depends on its own farms and ranches. A new analysis from Farm Flavor maps the nation’s agricultural hubs at the county and state levels, using the latest USDA data to show where agricultural value is concentrated, how output has surged even as inputs have held steady, and which products dominate in each location.
