Arkansas Farms (Anchor script I wrote for KNWA)

AROUND ARKANSAS,

MOTHER NATURE'S WRATH WEDNESDAY IS CAUSING QUITE A HEADACHE

Take VO

FOR CENTRAL ARKANSAS FARMS AND CREATING MAJOR SETBACKS DURING A CRUCIAL TIME.

FIELDS LOOK MORE LIKE LAKES, AND FARMERS SAY NOW IS WHEN THEY SHOULD BE PLANTING THINGS LIKE CORN AND RICE -- BUT THAT HAS COME TO A HALT.

MATT SCHAEFER SAYS CORN SEED IS AROUND 150 DOLLARS AN ACRE, AND HE HAS AROUND 800 ACRES OF THE CROP.

BUT THE RAIN DAMAGE IS SLOWLY SOAKING UP HIS PROFIT.
