Conservation and Modern Agriculture

George H. Dunklin, Jr., a rice farmer and co-owner of the Five Oaks Duck Lodge in Humphrey, Arkansas discusses his familys tradition of farming, conservation and hunting, dating back to 1907. Filmed in the northeast corner of the world famous Bayou Metro Wildlife Management Area, Five Oaks Lodge is comprised of 10,000 acres of privately owned, flooded timber and rice fields and is considered the center of duck hunting in America. Dunklin talks about the balance between conservation and agriculture: how they complement each other and the significance of sustainability to future generations.

Special appreciation is due George and his Lodge for participating in this CropLife America video.
