Happy Colorado Agriculture Week! See how much your county contributes to the state economy [Video]

DENVER (KKTV) – This week is Colorado Agriculture Week, and to mark the occasion, the Colorado Farm Bureau is breaking down the agricultural contributions of each of the state’s 64 counties.

“Let’s celebrate the vital role of agriculture in our state and country. From the plains to the mountains, our farmers and ranchers work hard to feed our communities and sustain our land. Here’s to their dedication and contributions to Colorado’s economy and heritage!” the bureau said in a social media post.

It likely comes as no surprise that most of the state’s biggest counties are clustered in the northeastern corner.
