Rural Is Incredible

87% of our food comes from rural America. Meet the communities that make it happen

Land O'Lakes, Inc. is a farmer-owned coopoerative that works within rural communities across the country to realize their full potential.

We work with more than 3,000 members to ensure they and the land they care for have the necessary resources, because we know these communities are crucial to the country they feed.
Farms from these rural communities produce 87 percent of the food and beverages that feed America, including dairy products, nuts, eggs and other staples of our country’s diet.

The cooperative is the beating heart of many rural communities that play a vital role in feeding the world.

The diverse talents of America’s rural communities are the key to our food and our future.
