How did the agricultural producers in Texas fare in Icepocalypse, now officially known as Winter Storm Uri? Will we have beef, grapefruit, and other food items from Texas in the future?

How do the losses compare to past extreme weather events such as the drought of 2011 and Hurricane Harvey?
David Anderson, Ph.D., Professor and Extension Economist in the Department of Agricultural Economics at Texas A&M University, chats with Larry about these issues.
