The theme this year was "Uncharted Waters: Navigating Change and Building Resiliency." James sat on a panel for a discussion titled "Shifting Knowledge: Decisions in Changing Times," and talked about a variety of topics, including water rights on farms, market demand, alternative cropping, and what farmers are managing their water for.
