Anheuser-Busch is the largest user of U.S.-grown rice and they have a special relationship with farmers – especially in Arkansas. Lesley got out of the Texas heat to go up to Jonesboro and the 2nd Annual Discovery Farm Showcase where she met and interviewed rice farmer Eric Vaught, U of AR researcher Trent Roberts, a Budweiser Clydesdale, and A-B’s Bill Jones. The event highlighted regenerative agriculture, soil fertility, irrigation strategies, the importance of research and checkoff dollars and more.

With special guests:

Eric Vaught, Arkansas Rice Farmer, Dr. Trent Roberts, University of Arkansas, and Bill Jones, Anheuser-Busch
