USDA statistics show that many canned and frozen vegetables on grocer’s shelves came from the upper Midwest.
Jason Culotta with the Midwest Food Products Association tells Brownfield some states are far and away top producers of certain veggies. “Wisconsin continues to lead the nation in snap bean production. We far outrank everyone. The next states are New York, Michigan, and Florida.”
Culotta says the COVID pandemic affected the production of sweet corn in 2021.
