Much of the upper Midwest, including Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota were formed by glaciers moving over the landscape, creating a region referred to as prairie potholes. Early agricultural practices were focused on draining the water from these potholes in order to farm the land.

This month and every month, ISG’s water specialists work hard to promote, build, and facilitate water system infrastructure that adheres to the latest local, state, and federal guidelines and keeps the water we consume, work with, and play in clean and safe.

This National Agriculture Week of 2022, the National Ag Week theme “Growing a Climate for Tomorrow” reflects the industry’s ability to take on big challenges and turn them into opportunities. It takes strong aptitude, steady hands, countless sleepless nights, and early mornings out of bed before dawn to address the important demands to grow and raise food for a hungry planet.
