Profile:

Farmington, the largest city in the Four Corners Area, sits in a valley with three rivers, the San Juan, Ánimas, and La Plata. Although agriculture flourishes (alfalfa, apples, corn, onions, potatoes), its main industrial and economic base is tied to the vast oil and gas reserves in the San Juan Basin.
