Imperial is one of many #rural communities in #Texas where deposits of radioactive materials dissolve into the groundwater. One aquifer in the state was found to have almost 13 times the EPA limits for radium. https://www.texasobserver.org/permian-basin-radium-drinking-water/

“How can we better understand the dynamic feedbacks between the environment and society?
Socio-hydrology models are often built around the assumption that cities act as homogeneous entities, without capturing the variable capacity of communities with different underlying socioeconomic characteristics to respond to and recover from disasters.
In this study, [the authors] developed a disaggregated approach to model community-specific adaptive capacity, allowing [them] to examine how inequalities influence flood recovery and resilience. This framework provide[d] a basis for exploring hypotheses about the relationships between growth, inequality, and community resilience in the face of flood hazards.
[Their] results highlighted] the importance of considering community-level dynamics when developing flood mitigation and disaster response strategies that balance economic growth with equity. Many challenges remain in applying socio-hydrology models to real-world settings, but this work takes a step toward incorporating more realistic representations of socioeconomic inequality into human–water systems while preserving the generality and flexibility that make conceptual models useful…”

#Livestock farming plays a vital role in EU’s #foodsecurity, #soil fertility, #biodiversity and the economic vitality of #rural communities.
Yet, livestock farmers are facing unprecedented challenges, from #climatechange and animal diseases to rising production costs and continued dependence on imported plant proteins🤔

😃 We're very excited! Over the past few months, citizens’ panel members from the Taking Action on #Rural #Poverty project have been working on a Photostories project, using images and personal stories to explore the lived realities of the rural poverty premium. And now - as Becky Hothersall explains - the exhibition is being launched today! #TARP

Republicans were unable to move their bill forward. The measure will determine the future of the USDA’s ReConnect Broadband program.

Senate Agriculture Committee Chairman John Boozman, a Republican from Arkansas, held a markup hearing on his version of the Farm Bill on Thursday, August 6. It didn’t go very well.

Rural broadband is essential infrastructure—but how should we fund it for the long haul?

Should broadband funding be locked into permanent law, or should Congress revisit it with each new farm bill?

What approach makes the most sense for rural communities? 💬
