Lunchtime Forum

Reservoirs are at historic lows and the state is in the midst of a drought. In response, farmers and ranchers have changed their practices and what they're growing, while elected officials have enacted new laws and a water bond. If the drought persists, more changes are likely. Join us for a discussion of climate variability, agricultural production and water policy and what we might expect in future.
