Jason Smith, Arkansas Rice Farmer/Waterfowler

Southeast Arkansas farmer and passionate waterfowler Jason Smith joins the show to sift through the hurdles farmers are facing in the current economy and how that impacts the ducks. He also shared intimate knowledge of Cutoff Creek Wildlife Management Area and expounds on the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission’s plan to implement more walk-in-only areas in other WMAs. The guys also delve into the impacts on farmers and subsequently ducks with the passage of Big Beautiful Bill, the effects of a wet spring and early summer in Arkansas, the ethics and consequences of leaving unharvested crops for ducks, and a bunch more. Thanks to our sponsors: Tom Beckbe, Lile Real Estate, Perfect Limit Outdoors, Purina Pro Plan, Sitka Gear, Greenhead: The Arkansas Duck Hunting Magazine, Diamond M Land Development, and Ducks Unlimited.Duck Hunting Podcast, Arkansas duck hunting, waterfowl conservation podcast, outdoors podcastsSend us Fan MailAll Rights Reserved.
