Agriculture & Food: Animal Agriculture Raising animals -- poultry, hogs, horses, beef and dairy cattle, fish and more -- has become the most valuable segment of North Carolina agriculture. Today, animal agriculture accounts for about 60 percent of the state's total farm cash receipts. Here in Durham County, the primary livestock activities include horses, goats, and beef cattle. Should you have questions about raising livestock, from a backyard flock to a full-scale farming operation, don't hesitate to contact us at 919-560-0525.
