Louisiana Information

In Louisiana, protecting the environment is important to safeguard food products and natural resources. Trees, the main agricultural product, along with beef cattle, rice, soybeans, dairy products, and sugarcane require a healthy environment in order to achieve their potential growth. Since Louisiana is the national leader in fishery products (shrimp, crawfish, tuna, blue crab, etc.), and because fishing is year round, clean water is a necessity. Some of the environmental pollution prevention programs are Litter Reduction and Public Action Program, Artificial Reef Program, Small Business Assistance Program, Louisiana Technical Assistance Program, and Urban Wildlife Project.
