E9: A taste of Louisiana agriculture and trade: from crawfish to sugarcane

  • サマリー

  • Louisiana is famous for many things – its Creole cuisine, bayous, alligators, and jazz scene are legendary. But, unbeknown to many, the state is also an agricultural powerhouse, the premier gateway for U.S. exports, and a hub for research and innovation.

    In this, the first of four episodes recorded on location, we share the story of sustainable Louisiana agriculture and trade, from the cotton fields and sugarcane rows to the crawfish ponds and the mighty Mississippi. To set the scene, we chat with Dr. Mike Strain, Commissioner of the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry, about the Port of Greater Baton Rouge, America’s economic superhighway, and its pivotal role in agricultural trade. We hear how it continues to evolve and rise to the challenge of climate change, much like Louisiana’s farmers who adapt and use the best available tools to protect their land for future generations. We also hear from USSA’s David Green, who gives his perspective on USSA’s Louisiana tour. Tune in now for a flavor of Louisiana and a unique insight into our experience visiting the state.
