Can Wisconsin claim country's top cranberry crown, as Gov. Tony Evers says?
According to the report, Wisconsin produced 4.17 billion barrels of cranberries in 2021. In comparison, Massachusetts produced just more than 2 million barrels. The numbers for 2022 have not yet been released."Wisconsin is the nation’s leading producer of cranberries, harvesting more than 60 percent of the country’s crop," according to the association’s website.
Those figures are on the money. Wisconsin has more than twice the cranberry production of the next highest-producing state, Massachusetts.
