TWILA : April 24, 2026
Ongoing drought, new legislation, and a busy planting season are all front and center on this week’s TWILA. We take a look at drought conditions impacting hay production, explore proposed forestry disaster aid legislation, and check in on soybean planting as farmers work within a critical window. You’ll also hear from a candidate in Louisiana’s 5th Congressional District race, meet the new president at ULM and her connection to agriculture, and see a unique crawfish creation that’s getting plenty of attention.
