Hay.
West Texas cotton stops dead at the New Mexico line? Something’s going on there. State subsidies? Undercutting NM prices? What is it?
3/4 of the fruits and nuts and 1/3 of the country’s vegetables are grown in California. Also #1 state for agriculture value, highest receipts at over $50B (Iowa #2 $26B)
There’s a small but concentrated pistachio growing region around Alamogordo, NM.
Being from the Great Lakes area, it’s interesting to see where fruit is grown in relationship to lake effect weather.
Some i’d like to see added:
grapes
milo
alfalfa(maybe included in hay)
Potato
This map looks very unreliable. You’re telling me that many counties have that much percentage dedicated to raspberries? I don’t believe you.
I really like the idea of this series of maps but the problem is the crops have different data ranges. So it makes it look for example that Michigan grows way more Raspberries, Strawberries, and Wheat compared to the amount of Corn and Soybeans.

Unbeknownst to most people, even though Kentucky is primarily an Upper South tobacco state like Tennessee & North Carolina. We actually do grow cotton in the Mississippi River counties of KY, and is considered the very northern tip of the cotton belt.

As a Masshole I’d like to see cranberries
Thought they grew Rice in South Carolina. I have seen orange groves in California as well.
Can someone explain what sorghum is used for?
Is there a source for this? Wondering about peaches and some other crops

Colorado grows a decent amount of corn on the western slope of the Rockies that doesn’t show here at all, it seems the corn on the map might be primarily feed form that isn’t usually for human consumption
Poor Nevada.
