How are water quality and agriculture tied together?
This fantastic new documentary explores how water quality and agriculture are connected… in Iowa and downstream. The filmmaker is Erica Blair, a University of Iowa BFA student who just graduated. It features interviews with Rick Cruse at the Iowa Water Center at Iowa State University and Jerry Peckumn who is on our board and is president of Iowa Rivers Revival, as well as Matt Rota, one of our friends at the Gulf Restoration Network: United for a healthy Gulf of Mexico.
