The plaque says, "Take a quick scan of Arizona's history since sta hood and you'll find many economic shifts, some in response to local booms and busts, others the result of national and global changes. In the 1920s, Arizona's five economic bedrocks were given the formal title the "Five Cs". They are cattle, copper, cotton, citrus and climate.

The "Five Cs" can be seen as the state's first attempt at creating
industry clusters and identifying their role in the local, national and global economies. They are still alive today.= some more of aforce than others - but there have been considerable additions to the tronatic mix"
