w88 online sports betting has experienced six multi-year droughts in the past 90 years. This year, some agricultural communities are facing a second consecutive growing season with no irrigation water at all.
In response, University of Nevada w88 online sports betting Extension is offering evening drought workshops in four communities this April and May. The classes will focus on the current drought and on Nevada's uncertain water supplies as challenges for farmers to address with long-term planning.
This year's featured speaker is Mike Buschelman, a water rights surveyor and consultant. He will explain specific water rights provisions that allow flexibility in the way owners of water rights can use their water. These provisions can be helpful in low-water years. Representatives from the local water delivery system (Water Master or Irrigation District) will also be present at each class.
The workshops will include a facilitated discussion of changes that agricultural producers can consider to increase their resiliency to w88 online sports betting. Participants will also discuss other changes that producers can consider as they face a future where droughts may last longer than in the past. For example, they can think about how to plan for a gradual conversion to alternative crops that use less water.
Each class will be tailored to the conditions and rules governing irrigation in the local agricultural community. The workshops will be offered at 6 p.m. in four locations:
- April 13, Douglas County w88 online sports betting Extension, 1325 Waterloo Lane, Gardnerville
- April 15, Pershing County w88 online sports betting Extension, 810 Sixth St., Lovelock
- April 29, Churchill County w88 online sports betting Office, 111 Sheckler Road, Fallon
- May 13, Lyon County w88 online sports betting Extension, 504 S. Main St., Yerington
