Water sustainability in agriculture

"To foster discussion on these issues, NABC 23 was organized around four topic areas: [1] Agricultural adaptations to water needs; [2] Developments to water management and policy; [3] Changing role of agriculture in environmental and soncumer issues; and [4] Preparing for future challenges of water issues. A cross-section of interdisciplinary talks was presented to 83 attendees by excellent speakers--from academia, industry, farming, research centers and federal agencies--and at the conclusion of each session, the presenters convened for panel question-and-answer sessions, to reflect on the issues raised and to take comments and questions from the audience. As is traditional at NABC meetings, attendees had additional opportunity for discussion during breakout workshop sessions"--P. vii.
