Show Notes
Crawfish season is officially underway across Louisiana, though farmers say weather conditions and rising production costs could shape how the season plays out. Producers approached the year with cautious optimism after a dry fall drove up irrigation demands and expenses before harvesting even began. Todd Fontenot, Crawfish Extension Agent with the LSU Agricultural Center, joins Dave Cohen to talk about what it all means to crawfish-loving consumers who expect crawfish as Mardi Gras season and Lent roll around.
