Iowa: Agriculture

[♕-SlawkA-♕]

Welcome back to Iowa! In today's blog, we're giving you a quick look at Iowa's farming industry and introducing new agricultural depots across the state. Get ready to haul cargo through the heart of the Hawkeye State in American Truck Simulator!

Farming is a big part of life in Iowa, with nearly 90,000 farms across the state, and more than 85 percent of its land being farmed. Iowa is also ranked number one in the USA in corn, pigs, and egg production. But that is not all, as local farmers also focus on a wide range of other produce, such as soybeans, oatmeal, cattle, and more.

And because this industry is so huge, it makes sense that Iowa is also one of the largest and most well-known manufacturers of farming equipment. That's why we are introducing two new types of custom depots - the Agricultural Factory, which manufactures the machinery, and the Agriculture Dealer, which sells it to customers. Both can be found at multiple locations in Iowa.

Along with the two new depots, truckers will also come across custom farms specializing in wheat, cattle, and pigs, as well as a grain elevator depot, where they will surely be able to find a job. When cruising through this state, keep your eyes peeled for neatly-terraced corn fields along the roads, often found in Iowa, that were recreated by our map designers for more immersion.
