To wrap up the 2024 Alliance Summit, LTD Farms will host a farm tour on their 3,500 acre rice, soybean and corn operation located south of Stuttgart, Arkansas — the Rice and Duck Capital of the World.

Owned by Terry and Lori Dabbs and Trent and Kristian Dabbs, they participate in many conservation programs on their farm through many different agencies. They were one of the original farms in the Arkansas Discovery Farm program where water quality is being studied through runoff monitors to see what nutrients or other particles are present in the water that runs off their fields.  Located in a critical groundwater area, they have implemented moisture sensors and other conservation measures to make irrigation more efficient.  Find out more about their conservations efforts here.

LTD Farms is the recipient of many awards, including the American Soybean Association Southern Region Conservation Legacy award and, most recently, the 2024 Southern Cotton Ginners Association Ag Achievement Award for their work with the University of Arkansas Department of Agriculture.

Terry serves on the board of Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation and was elected to the office of Secretary/Treasurer. He also serves on the Southern Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Board of Directors and as Chairman of the Arkansas Discovery Farm Advisory Committee.  Lori is on their county FSA Committee and the Board of Trustees for the Museum of the Arkansas Grand Prairie and was named Arkansas “Agvocate of the Year” and Arkansas County’s Woman of the Year in Agriculture.  Trent was named to the Arkansas Corn and Grain Sorghum Board and is active with the Arkansas Rice Federation and Arkansas Agricultural Council. Kristian serves as principal of a local parochial school. All are active in their church and with their kids and grandkids and travel extensively to support them in softball, baseball and dance.

ABOUT THE VENUE

The Old State House Museum is the original state capitol building of Arkansas. Since 1833, when construction began, the building and its grounds have witnessed many of the most important events in Arkansas history.

It was here that Arkansas was admitted into the Union, a fatal knife fight between two sitting legislators took place, Arkansas voted to secede from the United States and join the Confederacy, pioneering medical research into hookworm and malaria occurred, and our front porch served as the site of two election night victories by a president of the United States. Today, the museum’s exhibits and events are open to the public.

In 1836, Arkansas became a state. Kentucky architect Gideon Shryock, appointed to design the new capitol, chose the Greek Revival style for the new state capitol to emphasize the connection between the newest state of the young United States and the original democracy of ancient Greece.

In 1947, the Old State House was made a museum by acts of the Arkansas legislature, a status it has enjoyed ever since. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1997. It continues to play a vital role in preserving, sharing, and celebrating the history of Arkansas and its people.
