The fertile Whitewater Valley encouraged settlers to stop their westward movement and settle the area in the early 1800's. Area farmers continue to reap rewards with innovative farming techniques today. Wayne County has a strong agricultural base in grain (corn, soybeans, oats, wheat, canola), beef, pork, and poultry.
