Welcome to the first of two, year-end retrospective programs about the state of California agriculture as we wrap up 2019. This week, we look back on three issues of great concern to the state’s farmers: access to water under the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act, access to farm labor, and the ongoing tariff wars, which have put a big dent in California’s overseas agricultural sales. And there’s good news from 2019, as well: The official repeal of the Waters of the United States rules; and, progress on securing a trade deal with two of our biggest customers, Canada and Mexico.
