CCA to host webinar on ag water leasing

Colorado Cattlemen’s Association Ag Water NetWORK will feature details and discuss key elements on how two successful agricultural water leases work in Colorado. Plan to join the webinar Thursday, May 11, at noon.

CCA, through the Ag Water NetWORK, serves as a convener of water stakeholders from the agriculture, conservation and public sector interests in delivering meaningful dialogue and services to agriculture irrigators. This will be the first in a series of webinars hosted by CCA, aiming to increase the knowledge of irrigated agricultural producers as it relates to navigating the complex water laws and the obstacles posed by competing water-related interests.

CCA is presenting a webinar about successful agricultural water leasing projects presented by Chris Kraft and Jack Goble. Chris Kraft is a shareholder of the Fort Morgan Ditch Company, as well as a farmer and owner of Badger Creek Dairies, located in Fort Morgan. Jack Goble, professional engineer for the Lower Arkansas Valley Water Conservancy District, will be discussing the details of the Catlin Canal Lease Fallow Alternative Transfer Methods project.
