BE IT RESOLVED that SARM work with the Water Security Agency, Saskatchewan Agriculture, and related non-governmental organizations to create a workable Water Management Strategy that allows agricultural landowners in Saskatchewan the freedom of maximizing the production capabilities of their land investment while allowing for workable natural areas to balance out some of the societal wants.
