The Grain Belt in the Midwestern States is probably the first thing people think of when it is about agriculture and the Food sector in the US. In only 4 Midwestern states, 90 million acres of corn are produced each year. But producing the primary products on farms is mostly only the first step in producing the actual food. Food manufacturing includes various subordinated sectors, as the corn grown in the grain belt has to be processed to flour by grain mills, and eventually bakeries produce the daily bread of US- citizens. Naturally, many more industries are included such as oils and fats, baby foods, meat- and fish processing to name a few of them.
