Its been so wet there this spring, I only know of two farms that have been planted (in the guys I deal with). The end of May is the drop-dead date for getting rice in and given that volume of water, it isn't gonna happen, so the whole flyway up there is likely to be without food. Crop insurance is gonna get hit hard.

Regarding the waterfowl.......we'll get out there in July/Aug and get some milo/millet in (done this before) but the area just can't hold waterfowl without crops, in my experience.
