Description

2021 looks like it might be a continuation of one of the worst geographical droughts in the last 20 years. 80% of the Western U.S. in drought and nearly 1/2 in "extreme" or Exceptional" drought. This series of episodes will be focused on the drought, the challenges and some strategies that might help advisors and grower manage through the drought.  In this episode, William Bourdeau joins us to help us understand the severity of the drought in California.  William is a grower (EVP at Harris Farms), director of Westlands Water District, and Chairman of the California Water Alliance. How are you creating your irrigation schedules this year?  Yara's Farm Water Advisor calculates your field specific plant water use for the next week and then advises you how long and frequent to irrigate.  And it's FREE!  Download it here Links we mentioned: Film, "Pray For Rain" Film, "Beyond the Brink" California Water Alliance California Sun Newsletter
