Don's miss @uarkaeab's Alvaro Durand-Morat talking #rice prices on @ArkansasPBS last week! ⬇️
And, Arkansas is a major supplier of rice internationally, but the state’s share is slipping as other countries are growing more of the crop. @AginArk’s Dr. Alvaro Durand-Morat explains what’s happening — which is leading to a rollercoaster in rice prices — to @donnaterrell_tv.

Our water-logging / flood tolerance test aims to replicate a real world flood. There are significant differences in yield among Soybean Varieties under water-logging stress. This helps soybean producers to select varieties for their fields where water-logging may be an issue.

A cost-feasibility analysis found that using #rice malt instead of milled rice in #beer brewing, as performed by large breweries, would decrease the cost of beer production by up to 12%. Read more at aaes.uada.edu/news/malted-ri…. @AginArk @uarkaeab @bumperscollege @USDA_NIFA
