Economy Economy Love County produces a varied economy.
Agriculture makes a large economic impact and oil production is significant.
Beef cattle are a mainstay. Peanuts and pecans are significant ground crops. The climate and soil are well-suited to a growing number of ostrich and emu raisers. These birds are excellent producers of red meat that is low in fat and cholesterol and they also provide valuable hides and oils. A growing number of quarter horse breeders and trainers are finding Love County ideally suited to their needs because of climate, soil, and access via I-35 to the numerous major events in Fort Worth and Oklahoma City.
