However, several recommendations were identified as providing functions related to more than one specific directive, including: 1)--Kansas Department of Agriculture Local Food Systems Coordinator. Create a position within the Kansas Department of Agriculture focused on supporting current specialty crop growers, as well as growing the industry and local food production systems in Kansas. 2)--Determine the current abilities, impacts and needs of local food system businesses in Kansas. Develop detailed production and economic data relevant to local food systems, including specialty crop, honey and livestock operations in order to leverage resources and develop the growing industry. 3)--Continue Local Food and Farm Task Force in 2016. Recognizing the complexity of local food systems, the task force recommends continuing the task force so that it may continue exploring opportunities to enhance local food production systems in Kansas"--Executive summary.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne of the greatest conundrums facing the arid western United States is the availability, use, and quality of groundwater. In large sections of the West, groundwater is the only dependable source of water for agricultural production and home consumption. Yet many of the aquifers are being depleted at a rate that will suck them dry within a century. Furthermore, dependence upon groundwater in many areas will only increase in the future. This dependence is already having serious consequences for small towns on the Great Plains. Faced with growing costs associated with deeper wells and the need for ever more advanced technology for extracting water, these towns find they lack the resources to maintain current agricultural practices. ΓΈ In this timely assessment of the West?s groundwater resources, the authors provide a detailed overview of groundwater management in the Western states. The authors present for each state the various management strategies, laws, and political realities that have made groundwater appropriation such a volatile subject. They also suggest possible difficulties that states and regions might face under current groundwater policies. By examining separate cases and viewing the West as a whole, the authors are able to identify not only the most pressing problems but also the most appropriate management techniques for protecting water supplies for future use.
