Extractions: The Great Lakes Governors have recently completed a draft document which sets goals for protecting the region's ecosystem. IATP submitted comments to the Governors identifying ways to recognize agriculture's impact on water availability and promote incentives and other policy mechanisms that can promote water conservation on farms without jeopardizing farm profitability. Rural Minnesota is well positioned for substantial gains from a growing bioindustrial economy based on the production of energy and products using plant matter, according to Cultivating a New Rural Economy - a new report by IATP. While much has been made of the societal benefits of a bio-based economy that increases our energy independence, it is our farmers and rural communities that may be the primary benefactors. With the advent of the new bio-based economy, we have the opportunity to turn to farms and rural communities for a significant portion of the renewable resources that we need to feed, fuel and run the industries of the nation.
