Hello, H-Rural friends:

A geographer colleague of mine at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire
has built a series of Web pages for students (and other viewers) called a
"Tour of Agriculture in the United States." The URL is:

http://www.uwec.edu/Academic/Geography/Ivogeler/w111/agr3.htm

That top-level page leads to a set of pages keyed to:

--dairying
--orchards
--corn
--soybeans
--general farming
--truck farming
--tobacco
--cotton
--wheat
--ranching
--irrigated farming

There are a series of topographical and physical maps, charts & tables for
each page.
