KS AGRICULTURE FUN
Known as the "Sunflower State" and also as the "Wheat State." Harvesting is seen all around. Kansas RV parks can be a part of your plans for your agri-tourism experience.
Wheat: Kansas wheat farmers plant 10 million acres each year!
Camping in late June or early July will let you see the custom harvesters bringing in the wheat.
Sunflowers: Sunflowers consume over 170,000 acres. Whether you're camping near a sunflower field, or you see their majestic glory while driving, August is a stunning time in Kansas.
Corn: Kansas dedicates over 3 million acres to corn.
Cotton: Could your Kansas camping trip provide the opportunity to see cotton fields? Although most don't think of Kansas for cotton, you'll find cotton fields in the southern part of our state.
Soybean: 2.8 million acres, definitely a proud amount! Camping in Kansas gives you so much opportunity to see the raw product before it makes its way onto the store shelves.
And there's more: sorghum (milo) is a primary autumn harvest crop.
If crop acreage isn't amazing enough, how about 6.65 million head of cattle and calves on our Kansas farms and ranches!
