by Leave a Comment

A team of researchers from several states across the country (see http://cleanwater3.org)is conducting a survey to better understand factors that influence nursery and greenhouse growers’ decision making processes when it comes to water conservation and treatment technologies. The goal is to aid producers of nursery and floriculture to implement sustainable, alternative sources of water to enhance long-term economic viability while decreasing dependence on potable water.  This survey is part of a larger USDA SCRI project to improve current water management technologies. All responses will remain anonymous. You can complete the survey by clicking here ==> WateR3growersurvey.
