New Farm Bill legalizes hemp growing. Clean Water Act revisions. Delta Tunnels delay.
from KSTE Farm Hour
The controversial Waters of the United States rules have been modified, much to the relief of California’s farmers. Congress passes the new farm bill, which includes Senator Mitch McConnells’ pet project: the legalization of hemp production in the United States. Does hemp production have a future in California? We have an in-depth report. Another hitch in the progress of California WaterFix, also known as the Delta Tunnels. Is it enough to derail that project? Also: advances in trade negotiations and a story about an ad looking for American-born farm workers. 12,000 applications were received…only 12 showed up for work. Guess how many stuck around. It’s all coming up on this week’s KSTE Farm Hour. Let’s get started!
