Indiana Economy
About half of Alabama
Manufacturing is an important part of
Indiana’s economy. Iron, steel, electrical and transportation equipment,
chemicals, and food items are produced in industrial cities throughout the
state. These include Evansville, Fort Wayne, Gary, Kokomo, South Bend, and Terre
Haute. Indiana also has large deposits of coal and limestone, valuable resources
used in industry and construction.
A long growing season and high annual rainfall amounts contribute to rich yields
from farms throughout the state. Seventy-five percent of Indiana’s land is used
for agriculture. Principal crops include corn, wheat, soybeans, hay, popcorn,
and various types of fruits and vegetables. Many farms also produce hogs,
cattle, eggs, and dairy products. The meatpacking industry is one of Indiana’s
largest agriculture-related businesses.
Due to its central location, Indiana is an important hub of transportation. The
northwest corner of the state is one of the most heavily traveled areas in the
world in terms of air, train, road, and waterborne traffic.
