About Dodge City (KS)
Dodge City, Kansas has a rich history in agriculture and is known as the “Cowboy Capital of the World.” The city’s agricultural heritage dates back to the 1800s when it served as a major shipping point for cattle drives along the historic Santa Fe Trail.
Cattle ranching played a significant role in Dodge City’s early economy. The city served as a major cattle market, where cowboys would bring herds of cattle from Texas to be shipped eastward on the railroad. The cattle industry thrived in Dodge City due to its location at the intersection of several important cattle trails, such as the Western Trail and the Chisholm Trail.
Today, agriculture remains an essential industry in Dodge City and the surrounding region. The area is primarily known for its beef production and feedlots. The region’s abundant grasslands and favorable climate make it ideal for raising cattle and many ranches and feedlots can be found in and around Dodge City. The area’s beef production contributes to the local economy and also supplies meat to markets across the United States.
