Minnesota leads the nation by raising an estimated 46 million turkeys in 2012 according to the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service. The other states were not even close in turkey production such as North Carolina (36 million), Arkansas (29 million), Missouri (18 million), Virginia (17 million) and Indiana (17 million). Those five states plus Minnesota account for about two-thirds of U.S. turkey production in 2012. Growers are expected to be raised a total of 254 million turkeys in the United States in 2012.

North Carolina and Arkansas. Both states produce millions for the food industry. Turkeys are easy fowl to raise, they reproduce readily, and grow quickly. Man has produced feeds that make for a plumper, larger bird. So, enjoy that bird this season.(I recommend deep frying, makes the bird juicier).
