Relief is on the way to Texas farmers and ranchers who have not been getting water deliveries from Mexico, as part of a decades-old treaty.
The state Department of Agriculture and USDA have teamed up, offering $280 million in grant assistance for producers with water rights along the Rio Grande River.
Texas Commissioner of Agriculture Sid Miller spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender about the treaty’s background, what farmers need to know, and if this will be enough to alleviate the situation.
