Answer:

  Oil and gas extraction

Explanation:

The surface resources in the midwest favor farming as a land-based economic activity. The demographics and transportation resources favor health care, insurance, and banking as economic activities.

However, the greatest contribution to overall US economic activity from this region comes from oil and gas production. Specifically, these are the greatest contributors to GDP in the states of Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and North Dakota.
