TWILA: October 30, 2026
From a decade behind the butcher counter to a new face on the TWILA team, we've got plenty to share this week! We visit West Feliciana Parish, where drought and rising costs are squeezing cattle ranchers, celebrate 10 years of Iverstine Butcher and see how students are growing their agricultural skills in Lincoln Parish. Plus, LSU AgCenter researchers are finding a unique way to speed up wheat breeding. We're also welcoming TWILA's newest reporter, Gabriella Mercurio! Join us for her first official story as she explores how Louisiana's Farm to School program is turning food waste into learning opportunities.
