The dairy industry has been an important part of the economy, at one time being so prevalent that cans lined country roads, waiting to be transported to the creamery. The cow is one of 125,000 head that graze on the state- and federally-owned land within the county.

Agriculturally, the area was known as “The Potato Processing Capital of the World,” and the seal includes a spud, a carrot and wheat.

The mountains, clouds and shining sun represent Cassia County’s natural beauty.
