Top Money-Making Crops in Texas

(KNUE-FM) It's common knowledge that there are hard-working farmers here in Texas, it has been that way for centuries. Each year these people are doing everything in their power to keep their crops growing, and if everything goes right, they can bring in a big harvest and make plenty of money to provide for their family and have enough to plant again next year.

But which crops in Texas are bringing in the most amount of money?

It was a little shocking to me that the three biggest money-making crops in the state of Texas each bring in over a billion dollars in annual production. It just goes to show you how much farmland is in Texas for all these items to be produced and for that much money to be made from these products.

It's impressive to see the actual dollar amounts; but of course, that is only if everything goes according to plan which we know doesn’t always happen.
