Illinois does not have a "state crop" in the same way they have a state bird (the Northern Cardinal) or a state flower (the Purple Violet). However, their biggest crop by far is corn, usually ranking second in the nation for total production. The state's farmers also usually rank either first or second in the nation in soybean production, though the total volume is considerably less than that of corn.
