Agriculture

The Tracy area is rich in agriculture.

The highways, county roads and dusty backroads of southwest Minnesota are surrounded by corn and soybean fi elds — reminders that the Tracy area is part of an agriculture-based region that appreciates its hard-working farm families. At the heart of farming operations in Tracy is CHS, a farmer-owned cooperative that has worked to help America’s farmers be more successful since 1929. CHS Tracy, on 301 South Street, is one of 10 locations in Minnesota, to go along with 10 in South Dakota and one in Nebraska.
