Illinois Agricultural Landscapes From Above - No. 25

            The visual impression of Illinois’ agricultural landscapes is one of expansive openness, where the sky meets the earth in an unbroken line, punctuated only by the occasional farmhouse, silo, or grove of trees along waterways. Sometimes, the trees are part of a more extensive woodland interspersed with agricultural land. This combination, often called agroforestry, integrates trees and shrubs into crop and livestock systems that support a diverse range of plant and animal species.

Generally, it is a landscape dominated by monoculture crops, primarily corn and soybeans, stretching across the horizon in neat, orderly rows. The area is predominantly flat with gently rolling hills, and the soil is exceptionally rich, thanks to thousands of years of organic matter accumulation from deep-rooted prairie plants. This has made Illinois one of the most productive agricultural states in the United States.
