While the Mississippi Flood Plains often experience flooding, local farmers feel that the rich deposits of silt from the overflowing river compensates them for the crop loss. The other regions are ideal for small farms, particularly livestock operations, and non-farming residential properties.

Types of Farms Found in Tennessee

In addition to a nice division of beef and dairy cattle, farmers also raise chickens, soybeans, cotton, corn, and hogs.
