A week-long look at land purchases and leasing in rural Cochise County.
by Zachary Ziegler

Arizona Business Report spot

Listen:

The Arizona Business Report with AZPM's Zac Ziegler breaks down AZPM's investigation of land purchases in Cochise County with AZPM's Christopher Conover and Lorraine Rivera.

They discuss one particular find from the special series. Land and professional sports mogul Stan Kroenke owns or leases a stretch in the southeast corner of Cochise County that is roughly 80,000 acres, almost 2 percent the county. They also break down a concern with the land rush, how will the area's water supply be affected?
