Acequia heritage pushed by New Mexico leaders in Dixon

In Dixon acequia leaders gathered for Congreso de las Acequias to defend water rights and way of life. Antonio Medina urged 800 parciantes to commit to sustaining acequias while backing resolutions opposing state water plan provisions favoring transfers and markets and reaffirming Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo protections. State Sen. Cisneros received praise for advancing the cause.

Delegates report water sharing by time and use, cite Syria and Yemen inspired practices, and note financial strain driving off farm work and rental mobile homes.
