Knowing the Players: Agriculture and Watershed Management

Agricultural businesses play a significant role in many activities that affect watersheds. This paper attempts to define some roles of agriculture, as a starting point for discussions in the stakeholder process. The Project Team hopes that this paper will improve the understanding by all stakeholders of the roles they and others play in this important venture.
