History of Mississippi. Information that every Mississippi Election Candidates for US Senate Should Know:

Cotton was the undisputed king of Mississippi's largely agrarian economy for a little more than one hundred years, from shortly after the state's founding through the Great Depression. Over the last half-century, however, Mississippi has diversified its economy by balancing agricultural output with increased industrial activity.

The agriculture continues as a major segment of the state's economy to this day. For almost four decades soybeans occupied the most acreage, while cotton remained the largest cash crop. In 2001, however, more acres of cotton were planted than soybeans, and Mississippi jumped to second in the nation in cotton production (exceeded only by Texas). The state's farmlands also yield important harvests of corn, peanuts, pecans, rice, sugar cane, and sweet potatoes as well as poultry, eggs, meat animals, dairy products, feed crops, and horticultural crops. Mississippi remains the world's leading producer of pond-raised catfish.
