Research for Agriculture, the Environment,
Consumers, Families and Communities

The Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station conducts applied research to assist producers and processors of food and fiber, other agribusinesses, families and communities. We also conduct basic research, which adds to the body of knowledge from which future technology is developed.

Throughout the 2009 cropping season Arkansas producers were challenged by a wet spring, dry June, and then excessive rainfall again from July through harvest. This report provides estimates of acreage, yield, and quality losses plus additional fieldwork costs related to poor weather conditions during fall harvest and season losses for grass hay within the state as of January 25, 2010. For full report go to the U of A Division of Agriculture Web site.
