The 2019 Louisiana Small Farmers Conference was hosted recently by the Southern University Ag Center at the school's F.G. Clark Activity Center. Upcoming areas of interest in farming and the many challenges affecting small farming operations, including rains in the last year that made it difficult to harvest many crops in Louisiana, were addressed by Louisiana Commissioner of Agriculture & Forestry Mike Strain, DVM, and keynote speaker Randolph Joseph, Jr.
