Guymon: Oklahoma Panhandle Center and Pork Processing Hub
Guymon sits in the center of the Oklahoma Panhandle, a narrow strip of land once called No Man's Land because it remained outside any organized territory for decades. The area was annexed to Oklahoma Territory in 1890. The town was founded in 1901 and named for Edward T. Guymon, an early developer. Agriculture, particularly wheat and corn production on the irrigated plains above the Ogallala Aquifer, has been the regional foundation.
The Seaboard Foods pork processing plant, opened in 1995, processes more than 20,000 hogs per day and has drawn a diverse immigrant workforce, particularly from Mexico and Central America. Pioneer Days, held each May since 1932, features what the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association has ranked among the best midsize rodeos in the country.
The Panhandle State Extension Center operated by Oklahoma Panhandle State University in nearby Goodwell conducts agricultural research. Texas County, where Guymon sits, produces more natural gas than any other county in Oklahoma and ranks among the top gas-producing counties in the country.
