Reply to comment by curtludwig in Newcomers to New Hampshire and Maine continue to drive population growth: More people are dying than being born, so population growth depends on people moving in from elsewhere by TurretLauncher

Only cruised up #1 , between callis and houlton, and points West to Jackman. 2023 will be the year I explore North country ;) but I suppose you're referring to the potato industry?

Not just the potatoes, in early September most of the broccoli eaten on the east coast comes from Aroostook county. The farmer that rents my land farms something like 3000 acres.

They don't plant the same thing every year, this year my land was in oats, last year potatoes. I think broccoli is every 4 years...
