Dec 19, 2016WPVGA publishes water fact book
Over the next few months growers will be presenting factual, scientific information to local governmental bodies throughout central Wisconsin.
“We welcome opportunities to develop and promote responsible water use practices that will protect the groundwater aquifer of the Central Sands and its associated streams, lakes and wetlands,” said WPVGA Executive Director Tamas Houlihan. “The fact is, studies show irrigated agriculture returns more water to the stream flow than non-irrigated agriculture or non-crop landscapes.We remain committed to finding science-based solutions to preserve and protect this precious resource and we support efforts that focus on facts, not rhetoric.”
