Though it lacks particularly fertile soil, the fresh country side of Limousin is perfect to support cattle and other livestock, accounting for greater than 90% of the total agricultural output, thus making this the major industry of Limousin. French food conglomerate BSN and other such companies in the agro-foods industry have put down roots in Limousin as a result of their attraction to the region’s large agricultural sector. The region is well known for its ox with sweet chestnut, and potato with sheep tongues, ideally served with a glass of Branceilles wine of the south of Corrèze.
