The most notable farming success has been the Jersey Royal new potato, which was the island's main crop in the 20th century and probably remains so today. But the island was once famous for its cider, the making of which has all but died out. The Jersey cow, which until recently was bred in isolation from cattle elsewhere in the world, has also been a valuable export.
