Recognizing the overwhelming need for extending drought mitigation information to ranchers across the state and the practical constraints many producers face in trying to travel for a day-long workshop the California Institute for Water Resources in cooperation with the Department of Water Resources has provided support to help extend information generated in the UC SFREC Drought workshop across the state. This includes local support for 7 UCCE satellite workshops that bring workshop information to other regional meetings across the state as well as support for a few “train the trainer” programs where UCCE academics, California Cattlemen, and Farm Bureau representatives can get support to learn about the UC SFREC workshop material and extend this information to regional partners. Given the immediacy of this drought and the need to quickly pull programs together, this sponsorship represents an effective opportunity to extend information.
