More water to flow to Central Valley farmers. Alfalfa and nitrogen use. Hemp.

The President paid a visit to Bakersfield last week. He brought good news for San Joaquin Valley farmers. That’s right, more Northern California water will be heading south.

We take a look at current Sierra snow levels (it’s shrinking), the federal government’s promise to upgrade broadband internet service in rural California (it hasn’t happened yet) and a lot more, on this week’s KSTE Farm Hour.
