YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - In this week's Home Grown report, a new program, launching in Yuma, is aiming to improve water conservation and efficiency in local agriculture.

Organizers say the four-day Master Irrigator course will provide hands-on training with tools like moisture sensors and drip systems to help improve water efficiency as drought conditions continue along the Colorado River.

The bilingual program will also include real-time translation tools to support both English and Spanish speakers.

The Arizona Master Irrigator Program is a partnership between the Agribusiness and Water Council of Arizona and the University of Arizona Cooperative Extension.
