CONWAY COUNTY FAMILY FARM OF THE YEAR
______
HON. J. FRENCH HILL
of arkansas
in the house of representatives
Friday, July 29, 2022
Mr. HILL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 2022 Conway County Family Farm of the Year, the Stobaugh Brother Family Farm.
Right off Highway 64, the Stobaugh family has been operating their family farm since the 1950s, producing soybeans, rice, and corn over 6,000 acres of land.
Known for their first-class quality of crops, the Stobaugh's continue to utilize traditional farming methods while welcoming advancements in agricultural technology. These advancements include weather stations throughout the farm, and innovative irrigation system, and computerized calculations to ensure efficiency.
Despite labor shortages and the rising inflation currently plaguing our agricultural industry, the Stobaughs continue to produce staple goods for many to enjoy at their dinner table.
Congratulations to the Stobaughs and I thank them for being part of the family farms that feed 86 percent of what feeds American families every night.
