Add it all up and the Minnesota dairy industry generates more than 53,000 jobs, according to a University of Minnesota study. Agricultural industries do not just impact agriculture. A grain producer impacts grain elevators, truckers, cereal producers, retailers and many others. This ripple effect is evidence that many industries are tied to agriculture's success whether they know it or not. That is why AURI supports new and innovative uses for farm commodities.
Every individual enterprise ripples into more income, more jobs and more value for the state.
