WorldCrops - World Crops for the Northeastern United States

Welcome to WorldCrops

The demographics of the United States are changed rapidly as immigrant populations have increased at rates not seen since the early 20th century, and the overwhelming majority of these immigrants are from non-European countries. Latinos are now 18% of the US population, with over 50 million inhabitants in 2013, and are expected to be the largest ethnicity in the US by 2050. The Asian population, with more than 17 million in 2013, is also growing rapidly. A large and growing number of people listed as African-American or Black in the US were born in Africa.

This dramatic increase in immigrant populations has had a significant effect on the U.S. marketplace, including the demand for fresh produce. Latinos and Asians now account for approximately 25% of all sales of fresh fruits and vegetables in supermarkets in the US.
