Resilient farm water management

Most farm businesses need water for livestock, crop production, and their diversified activities. Many farms rely on private water supplies or are at the end of mains pipes.

Reduced water security can have a serious impact on farm income. This seminar will consider what farmers can do to maintain reliable, resilient water supplies for their current and future needs.
