  1. Pretty much following the course of the Mississippi River. Essentially, most of the best farmland in the US.

  2. I wonder how closely this correlates with the higher corn producing areas. I know the fields near me typically flip flop corn with soy beans every other year to help with the nutrients in the soil.

  3. Basically the corn belt and the Mississippi delta. In Indiana the only white counties are Marion, where Indianapolis is, and counties in the south that are largely Hoosier national or other hilly forest land.

  4. Easy to see the outline of the Canadian Shield in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

  5. I’d like to see the before / after to see the difference created with the soybean tariffs

  6. Is soy used fir ethanol production or is it just corn?

  7. Is it common knowledge that the US is one of the largest producers of soybeans in the world?
