LSU Agriculture Talks Hurricane Laura Impact on Agriculture

Welcom back... am.

Yo're watching news15 today.

'm alex worstell... thanks so much for tuning in.

3 cutting but- they do it needed some makeup in most cases so some of the crop under water and will be lost or sugar cane all laid down some of that went under water which is kind of a double.

Problem and we'll we'll probably have to reduce sugar yields because of it and it's also gonna make planting difficult because those cricket when those plants try to stand back up they get crooked and it's- hard to you than the- they- plan will talk.

So that's going to be an issue as well.

Five or six thousand head of cattle had to be moved out of the south i mean part.

Of some of those have returned some of those crashes have come out of the water and some of the cattle were moved back but most of those are still.

Displaced in some cases on very small acreage so those those karamana having to.

Pete hey so.

Increased for the lack of grazing this fall.

Is going to be an issue for some of us.

Are surveying our producers and if you'd like to donate hey i'm sure
