These reliefs dominate the plain of the Snake River to the S, which crosses the southern section of the state in an EW direction, marking its western border for a long stretch; it flows into almost all the rivers of Idaho, including Clearwater, Salmon, Payette and Boise. The climate is continental, with cold winters and hot summers; rainfall is scarce in flat areas, copious on the hills. Agriculture (wheat, oats, barley, potatoes, sugar beets, fruit) is of moderate importance in the country’s economy, favored, by rivers, by irrigation. The vast pastures feed a substantial number of cattle (sheep, cattle). Forests, consisting largely of conifers, occupy approx. 38% of the territory.
