Southwest Ag Summit, Colorado River concerns, and Gallego Town Hall

This week on Arizona Edition, Yuma’s agricultural leaders gather for the Southwest Ag Summit to discuss the future of farming as water uncertainty looms over the region.
We also hear from a San Luis high school student advocating for stronger Colorado River water policies and cover Senator Ruben Gallego’s town hall in Yuma County.

We end the episode with a feature from our student run podcast Siendo Primero.
