In today’s show, the State Water Resources Control Board issued curtailment orders Monday to all 861 water right holders in the Upper Russian River. The orders make it illegal to draw or divert water from the Upper Russian River, except as needed to ensure human health and safety.  We also hear about a warning from the California Department of Pesticide Regulation against the use of pesticides labeled as W.O.W Whack Out Weeds! and EcoMight-Pro distributed by EcoMIGHT, as lab tests show that these products labeled as organic, natural and glyphosate-free do in fact contain potentially hazardous chemicals. Today’s feature interview is with Fresno County farmer Nick Rocca, who has a passion for keeping people farming in California.
