Agriculture
Agriculture is the center  of the life for many people in Isabel and the surrounding areas. The Dakota land is dotted with farms, ranches and small grain fields.  Beef cattle are the primary livestock raised, however sheep and hogs are also produced.  Each year farmers plant a variety of crops including corn, wheat, oats, barley, alfalfa, and beans. 
Many different breeds of cattle are raised in the area including Red Angus, Black Angus, Charolais, Limousine, Gelbvieh, Longhorn, and Hereford.
 
 



Each spring ranchers take turns helping neighbors brand and work the spring calves.
Most branding prove to be the great time to share with friends and family.
 

    We never said that it wasn't hard work.
