The Economic Impact of the Indiana Livestock Industries

The livestock industry is an important source of employment and economic activity in the state of Indiana. The four largest livestock sectors in Indiana combined create an economic impact on the state of nearly $6 billion and generate employment for more than 35,000 persons. The economy benefits not only directly from the industry, in terms of jobs and business income, but also because these businesses and their employees buy other products and services including cars, food, and other high-end items.
