Washington State farm slashes its irrigation needs
Original: How a Washington State farm dramatically slashed its irrigation needs
A farm in Washington State has dramatically reduced how much water it needs for irrigation, according to Yale Climate Connections. The report highlights how changes in farming practice cut water use while keeping crops growing. With drought and competition for water intensifying across the western United States, the case is being cited as an example of how agriculture can adapt to a drier climate.
Why now: Water scarcity and drought in the western US make practical examples of cutting irrigation demand timely and relevant.
