TWILA: June 18, 2021
This week, we’re bracing ourselves for some rough weather. LSU AgCenter Climatologist Jay Grymes joins us on set to give us more information on what rainfall we could expect Father’s Day weekend. LSU AgCenter’s Craig Gautreaux has an update on this year’s wet wheat harvest. TWILA's Neil Melancon bring us the story of one farmer who's re-stocking the Cajun Prairie with native seeds, while helping to grow his cattle operation. TWILA’s Jennifer Finley brings us to the Louisiana Farm Bureau Fishing Rodeo, where some avid anglers reeled in more than $16,000 for two programs benefiting the future of agriculture. We celebrate National Dairy Month, we take a look a the tail end of crawfish season, and we show you a video by Sendero Provisions Co., showing us the deep values of one American rancher in this week’s TWILA Boost.
