Showing of Film "Thirsty Land"

Submitted by Dan Devlin

The Kansas Center for Agricultural Resources and the Kansas Water Resources Institute at K-State are hosting a screening of the documentary film, “Thirsty Land,” on Thursday, April 6, in Forum Hall of the KSU Union. Thirsty Land is the story about extreme drought, agriculture, and the water crisis in the Western United States and how these challenges impact farmers, communities, and the environment. A number of Kansas farmers, officials and businesses are featured in the film.

Award winning film producer Conrad Weaver will be attending the event and he will follow the lecture with comments and take questions. The film will show at 1:30 p.m., followed by Conrad’s comments and questions from the audience.
