The mission of the
Mississippi River Basin Ag & Water Desk is to enhance the quantity, quality and impact of journalism on agriculture, water, and related issues throughout the watershed. Our high-quality, fact-checked regional stories are available for free for any outlet to retool, publish and distribute to local audiences.
We aim to recruit local newspapers, radio stations, online publications, TV stations, magazines and more.
Sign up below to receive instructions on how to access all of the Ag & Water Desk's stories, and to get emails when new stories are available for download and republication. Please be sure to provide contact info for the primary person at your outlet who needs access to our story elements for republication, if it's not you.
Please email assistant director Annie Ropeik at
annie@agwaterdesk.org with any questions. Thank you for your interest in our work!
PS: If your newsroom already works with us and you need access for a new person on your team, you don't need to fill this out -- just email Annie for assistance at the address above.
