Poultry (including broilers, turkeys and chicken eggs) is Arkansas' leading agricultural industry. Many poultry and egg companies are part of the Arkansas poultry industry.
The last few years have seen an increase in the hobby of keeping small poultry flocks. Youth poultry programs have also gained in popularity.
