food processing is North Dakota's most important manufacturing industry. Major food products include bread
and pasta, frozen potato products and seed oils (flaxseed, sunflower seed). Dairy products include milk

economy is much larger than most other states. Wheat is the leading farm product in North Dakota, ranking
second in production behind Kansas. North Dakota grows more durum wheat (used for pasta) than any other
state. North Dakota also leads all other states in the production of barley and sunflower seeds and is
a leader in the production of flaxseed (linseed oil). North Dakota is among the leading states in the
production of canola seed, honey, navy beans, oats, pinto beans, rye, soybeans and sugar beets. Hay is
