The demand for water on the Western Slope of Colorado is ever-increasing due to population growth, urbanization, and climate change. In rural and urban areas alike, shifting community attitudes and normalizing water conservation as a desirable community goal requires extensive communication and education. The primary goal of the Colorado Master Irrigator Program is to help producers determine how to maintain profitability while integrating tools and strategies that can help them improve water and energy-use efficiency and increase water conservation on their operation. The program is a non-profit, 4-day, 32-hour educational course that will be offered annually over three years to farmers and crop consultants starting in early 2025 through a collaborative effort between Delta and Mesa Conservation Districts.
