Abstract
Drawing on its people’s farming heritage, the Quapaw Nation has built an array of agricultural businesses that focus on sustainable crops and humane livestock husbandry, central to which initiative is the first USDA-certified meat processing plant in Indian county. In addition to job creation and increased economic opportunities, the Quapaw Nation Agricultural Programs have reduced reliance on external food sources and promoted healthy diets for tribal citizens and their neighbors.
