Farm prices fell to $1 yesterday. I expect 50% of the fields to be drained in next 10 days. If it falls again 100% thereafter

Yeah, it won't last long at this rate. Might be alot of late rice planted if it keeps up. Can't imagine many of these guys leaving fields drained with nothing on them from April 2020 to March 2021.

They also aren't making money on crawfish right now. I know a few guys that have already started draining some fields, and others that have said they will start before long if things don't get better. But you may be right, they may just leave them dry.
