Damn! That's high!

I've talked with a few farmers in the last week or two. They are having a lot of problems. Most are getting $2/lb or less. Some were told to stop running traps because the plants weren't buying any. There has been a lot of dead crawfish. Plants are losing 40-60% of what they bring in in some cases because the crawfish are dying.
