Lesley shares details of her recent trip to the 2024 California Rice Field Day at the Rice Experiment Station in Biggs, including exploring different rice varieties and her surprise at the current research being done into Alternate Wetting and Drying – a practice associated mostly with the mid-South. She and Michael discuss her interviews with researcher Telha Rehman and farmer Matt Dedmond, and then talk about their colleague Karah Janevicius who also attended field day and met with representatives from the International Trade Commission while there. All that, plus barnyard grass and In-N-Out Burger.
Guests
Dr. Telha Rehman, University of California – Davis and Matt Dedmond, California Rice Farmer
