The farm products industry is a broad category that includes a wide range of products that are derived from agricultural activities. These products can be divided into two main categories: primary farm products, which are the raw materials that are produced directly from farming and ranching activities, such as crops, livestock, and dairy products; and processed farm products, which are derived from primary farm products and are typically sold to consumers or used as ingredients in other products.
Some examples of primary farm products include wheat, corn, soybeans, rice, fruits, vegetables, and meats, while processed farm products can include items such as flour, oil, sugar, dairy products, and canned or frozen foods. The farm products industry is an important contributor to the global economy, providing the raw materials that are used to produce a wide range of food and non-food products.
