The Water Is Due: Texas Ag Commissioner weighs in on USDA’s plan to help producers dealing with water losses

“We can’t get Mexico to pay up.”

USDA is working to help Texas farmers who are impacted by Mexico’s failure to deliver much-needed water. The department has announced a $280 million grant agreement for the state to provide relief to eligible producers along the Rio Grande Valley.

Texas Commissioner of Agriculture Sid Miller spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender about why Mexico is failing to deliver water, what the economic relief entails, and what producers need to know.
