Best Answer

Agriculture is the major industry in Mississippi. Cotton, soybeans and rice are the major agriculture products. Also grown are substantial quantities of corn for grain, rice, and sweet potatoes. Other major industries in Mississippi include manufacturing, fishing in the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi River, and gambling in the casino industry. Oil and gas industry could become a major industry in Mississippi if the federal government lifts a ban on oil and gas drilling in certain areas of the Gulf of Mexico off Mississippi's southern coast.
