The Colorado Foundation for Agriculture is accepting applications for positions on both the board of directors and the advisory committee. The importance of offering tools to teachers to incorporate agriculture into their curriculum carries greater importance all the time. The CFA is looking for new voices and fresh ideas to help them carry out our mission of connecting Colorado educators and students to their food, fiber, fuel, and natural resources.
According to executive director Jennifer Scharpe, those with a passion for advancing agricultural literacy should consider applying for the volunteer positions. The task of helping young people understand where their food comes from is a great one and she said the CFA needs dedicated individuals to help reach this goal.

Barring an unlikely April miracle that brings heavy rains and snow to fill California reservoirs, farmers around the state can expect to receive drastically reduced amount of water from state and federal water systems this year.
For example, the state Department of Water Resources in March slashed its allocations to farms it serves to just 5%, and water projects with more junior rights, such as the Westlands Water District, were recently informed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation that the scant 5% allocation earlier promised is now on hold.
