Farmland Shrinks in Northwest Arkansas

Jared Phillips is a professor of international studies at the University of Arkansas, but he's also a farmer and a multi-generational Ozarker. He's also the author of Hipbillies: Deep Revolution in the Arkansas Ozarks. Today, he talks about how the rise of the population in northwest Arkansas has contributed to the disappearance of farmland in the area.

Kyle Kellams is KUAF's news director and host of Ozarks at Large.
