In this session, we will explore the growing problem of drought conditions affecting grape production in Eastern Washington. As climate patterns shift, the region has been facing increasing water shortages, which threaten the quality and quantity of grape yields. The lack of sufficient water not only stresses the vines but also impacts the timing of harvest and the overall health of the crops, leading to potential economic losses for growers. This session aims to provide an understanding of immediate and long-term implications of continued drought as well as highlight the development of sustainable solutions to safeguard the region's vital wine industry.
