Editing Greenup County, Kentucky (section)

===Features===
Like most eastern Kentucky counties, Greenup County is predominantly made up of rolling hills and valleys. The land in the Ohio River valley is generally flat and mostly populated by industry, commerce and residential development. Beyond this the land gives way to a series of hills and valleys that are representative of the [[foothills]] of the [[Appalachian Mountains]]. It is relatively sparsely inhabited by farmers. Among these hills, popular fishing spots can be found among the [[Little Sandy River (Kentucky)|Little Sandy River]], [[Greenbo Lake]], and [[Tygarts Creek]]. Greenup County's land is still predominantly covered by forest with minimal clear cutting of the old forests.

The soil has long supported a healthy agriculture and livestock industry. Traditionally, this has meant a sizeable [[tobacco]] base and cattle ranching. Since the late 20th century, as traditional agriculture products have been dominated by industrial-scale agri-corporations, growth has been seen in non-traditional products such as [[American Quarter Horse]]s, [[ostrich]]es, and [[cannabis (drug)|marijuana]].
