Putnam County
Agriculture
Agriculture in Putnam County is a
diverse, multimillion dollar industry
and a crucial land use that strengthens
our local food supply, economic vitality,
quality of life, community character,
picturesque landscape, environment,
and recreational opportunities. Top
agricultural and farming activities in
the County include equine and livestock
operations, greenhouses, nurseries,
orchards, maple syrup, hay and corn
production. There are 11,309 farmland
acres in Putnam County with farm sizes
ranging from 1.25 acres to 1,200 acres.
These lands are under intense pressure
and at great risk of being converted
to non-agricultural development.
Thoughtful, decisive action is needed
now to preserve the remaining farms
and agriculture in Putnam County.
The existing certified Agricultural
District, the Putnam County Agricultural
and Farmland Protection Board and
the Putnam County Soil and Water
Conservation District provide a basis for
further protection and enhancement of
agriculture in Putnam County.
A farm is lost to development every
three days in New York
