Wibaux County is a small, rural, agricultural county composed of 890 square miles providing homes to roughly 1,100 residents. The major industries include farming and ranching, and some oil production on the county borders. Currently 75 percent of Wibaux County acreage is farm and ranch production. Cover crops and pulse crops have been on the rise in production popularity in Wibaux County with a large majority of producers being beef cow/calf operators as well. Hunting small game is popular in Wibaux County along with fishing in the well-known Beaver Creek. Wibaux County has a very strong and supportive community, since the town of Wibaux is the sole town of the county. A variety of successful MSU Extension programs have taken place in the community this past year. Highlighted is the Strong People Exercise Program, the afterschool 4-H Cloverbuds Program and the partnership with the County Weed Department on local weed control.
