Decline of the tobacco industry in Virginia
It's a dying industry across the country and here in Virginia. Tobacco farms have dwindled across the Commonwealth in the last decade, according to recent data. And so has the number of people smoking cigarettes. Here's Philip Townsend.

The Railroad Industry – The Industry That Created and then Built West Virginia
It could be argued that no other industry is more important in West Virginia’s history than railroads. The B&O lines won its statehood and the C&O, N&W and Virginian railroads joined in to build coal and other industries. Railroads have been the lifeblood of the mountain state and continue to play that role.

The Aluminum Industry is Rolling with Help from the West Virginia Economic Development Authority
Skana Aluminum’s re-rolling mill in Clarksburg is allowing the company to access customers all over the east coast. The company has worked with the WVEDA from the very beginning and the partnership played a big part in keeping the facility open over the years. In fact, with equipment and facility upgrades through WVEDA financing, Skana Aluminum has gone from 35 to 64 employees and more than doubled their production capacity. See for yourself why the aluminum company says this West Virginia program is world class.

Hard times hit Virginia’s dairy industry
As the number of Virginia dairy permits continue to be withdrawn every five days, families try to keep business for next generation.
Usually milk prices swing up and down on three-year cycles, but 2018 is the fourth year in a row of lower-than-average prices. Four years ago, U.S. farmers were making about $23 for every 100 pounds of milk they produced. Now, they're getting around $15, according to the USDA.
"It's scary. It's terrifying. It's disheartening. A whole lot of different varieties of emotion that go into what's happening to us and you know it's like nothing I've ever seen," said farmer Ken Smith.

Clearing the air: Virginia's new hemp laws
State lawmakers have made strides in recent years to set up a cannabis framework in the Commonwealth, establishing home cultivation guidelines, sharing rules, and more. At the same time, cannabis alternatives have risen in popularity, and so has the attention paid by state lawmakers. Alex Littlehales reports on new changes in effect as of this weekend.
