Maple
More than 400 farms in Northern New York produced 105,613 gallons of
maple syrup with a value of $3.2 million, according to the 2002 Census of
Agriculture. Northern New York Agricultural Development Program projects
evaluate ways to improve the NNY maple industry through forest stand
management and value-added product development. For example, the production
value-added maple confections can increase producer income up to four-fold.
