A Delta Business Journal update says Mississippi River ports handled grain from this year's harvest, with considerable volume still stored on farms awaiting better prices. It notes the basin produces most U.S. agricultural exports and that about 60% of exported U.S. grain ships through New Orleans and South Louisiana.
The article also covers low and high water conditions and pandemic-related challenges.
