About the Texas Agriculture Law Blog:  Welcome to the Texas Ag Law Blog! This blog is an outreach project of the Texas Agrilife Extension Service. The goal of this blog is to keep you up to date on various legal issues impacting Texas agriculture.  We are specifically focused on water law, oil and gas law, leasing, property rights, right to farm statutes, and dealing with animal rights activists.  We hope to provide a variety of information from current news stories, to recent legal opinions, to the basics of various legal topics. For three years in a row (2014-2016), this blog has been named one of the American Bar Association Top 100 “Blawgs.” We’re glad you are here!
