Water Management Working Group

The Water Management Working Group, a 20-member task force assembled by Kentucky Farm Bureau, is charged to develop recommendations that will enhance the quality and quantity of water resources accessible for agricultural production in the state. Its mission is to research the emerging critical issue of inadequate water supplies available for agricultural production, examine potential actions to solve this deficiency and make recommendations for bringing new and reliable water sources to key areas of farm production in Kentucky.
