Agriculture in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania farming centers on the limestone valleys of the southeast and south-central counties, where dairy, poultry, grain and fruit are produced on comparatively small, intensively managed farms. Orchards along South Mountain and diversified produce operations add to the mix.

Agricultural preservation easements are widespread here and directly limit what a future owner can do. A review confirms easement terms, Clean and Green enrollment, nutrient management plans, barn and manure-system condition, and any oil, gas or mineral interests recorded against the property.
