More than 400 rice producers and industry insiders gathered for the first post-pandemic field day at the LSU AgCenter H. Rouse Caffey Rice Research Station on June 30.
Following a virtual field day in 2020, this year’s in-person event featured a field tour highlighting new developments in rice varieties, pest management and growing practices.
“We have had a great turnout for our first post-pandemic LSU AgCenter rice field day,” said Dustin Harrell, resident coordinator of the Rice Research Station. “We can once again give our rice growers and rice industry professionals an in-person look at our collaborative research efforts to create new varieties and best management practices for a thriving and sustainable rice crop here in Louisiana.”
