California is at a critical juncture with the future of its water usage, with over 100 farmers gathering together on Wednesday to discuss the issues facing the Central Valley at the California Water Alliance’s fourth annual water forum in Fresno.  While much of the discussion was ultimately focused on the tough water year with a clouded horizon, water experts urged farmers to band together in a call to action to push for better policy to bring relief to agriculture throughout the Central Valley. … [Westlands Water District General Manager Allison Febbo] who has been critical of the low allocation this year, did not hold back at the forum, saying 2024 has been “extraordinarily frustrating” given that Califiornia was coming off a historically wet year in 2023.
