Fun Fact: Where’s the beef? A good guess is Nebraska. In 2007, Nebraska produced 7.22 billion pounds of red meat—more than any other state in the country—according to a report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Besides the prestige of beating out Iowa and Kansas, Nebraska's high cattle and livestock production is a source of economic strength. About one out of every five to seven jobs in Nebraska is related to cattle production. The cattle industry provides jobs in farming and ranch production, meat processing, meat packing, and other positions.
