Agricultural Diversity: Oregon Ranches for Sale Have It All

The Beaver State is a leading producer of hops, peppermint, spearmint, snap beans, boysenberries, and youngberries. The state’s top three cash crops of the state are hazelnuts, hay, and wheat. In any case, it pays to keep in mind valuable information about Oregon’s agricultural sector before talking to a real estate broker. Oregon has three well-defined growing areas: the Oregon coast, Eastern and Southern Oregon, and the Willamette Valley. The state has very dry summers, so the state is heavily reliant on irrigation during the warmer months. Almost 78 percent of Oregon’s water usage goes to farm irrigation—that’s significantly more than the average national usage, which stands at 40 percent.
