Episode description
As if rice doesn’t have enough problems, this export-dependent crop is dealing with unprecedented shipping and logistical woes. From ocean freighters gaming a system they created, to truck weights and limited working hours in port, it’s a wonder the industry is surviving. Peter Friedmann, Executive Director of the Agriculture Transportation Coalition and Chris Crutchfield, President & CEO of American Commodity Company and newly appointed member of the National Shipper’s Advisory Committee, break it all down.
