I know that the Arkansas rice crop is a 3/4 loss this year. So now I wonder how much flooding related crop losses have and are occurring in other states this year.

I heard someone on Foxnews yesterday say that the fields that grow durm wheat are basically gone from this years harvest.Durum is what pasta is made from which reminds me I need to check my stash and if I need to buy another 20# before this hits the pricing.

Along with crop damage, the commercial use of the waterway transporting grain is also very economically tough.
