Talk:Agriculture in the United States
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bold text== Forgotten Native Americans == A section on the agricultural practices of Native Americans, pre- and post- European contact would be very appropriate. A high percentage of cultures in the America's practiced agriculture on some basis, with some cultures being clearly agriculturally based. Many food crops utilized by moderg American farmers where domesticated and cultivated first by Native Americans. WBardwin 00:11, 10 July 2001 (UTC)
- Note though that of the top ten crops, only 2 were native to the Americas and of the top 5 livestock, none were. (presumably turkeys would fall in the top ten though.) Of course, this article is hugely in need of expansion in all aspects, historical and modern. Rmhermen 01:52, 20 January,2006
