Wisconsin The State

Wisconsin’s greatest natural resource has always been its supply of lumber. Exploitive practices depleted the amount of forests in the past, but reforestation practices have helped to reverse the trend. Today about 40% of Wisconsin’s land is densely forested. Green Bay has one of the largest pulp and paper-products industrial complexes in the nation. Milwaukee, famous for its brewing and meatpacking industries, is also a home to manufacturers of vehicles and transportation equipment, metal products, medical instruments and equipment, farm implements, and lumber. Wisconsin also has an active agriculture sector that leads the nation in production of several crops such as oats, cranberries, and cabbage. The largest crop however is corn, which is primarily used as feed for cattle.
