Water is critical to agricultural operations in the Northern Great Plain, which are feeling the impacts of climate change though extreme drought over the past several years.

Vilicus Institute is working to share the learning happening on farms and ranches across the Northern Great Plains bioregion as a way of promoting more climate resilient agricultural practices and avoiding the duplication of efforts. 

We are developing a series of case studies featuring innovative water use and conservation projects within our region of North Central Montana. Projects featured in this study will highlight transferable solutions to water usage on agricultural operations.
