Schuyler County's farmland provides residents and visitors with fresh locally produced foods, beautiful open vistas, and important economic returns. Cultivated fields, farms and pastures entice tourists to our area, while our local government and community services are supported in part by taxes on our farmers' sizable investment in land and buildings. In return, agriculture requires only a small portion of public services. Schuyler County agriculture generated more than $21 million in sales in 2005, not including wineries. When the secondary impacts of agriculture are considered, and lumber, wood products and wineries are included, the total economic benefit to the County approaches $76 million.
