You are right. I work in crop insurance and there are 10s of 1000s of acres under water now and I am afraid it is only going to get worse. We are already preparing for a huge prevented planted corn acreage and maybe soybeans if things don't start looking up. With the snow up north, it is only going to get worse. The MS. river may not go down until the 4th of July. It maybe another '73 here in the Delta.
