Episode 79 WILL DROUGHT PUT ALFALFA FARMERS OUT OF BUSINESS OR AT LEAST ON THE HOT SEAT

A British newspaper reports on our drought
·       Alfalfa is king
·       Powell and Mead have risen to 36% of capacity from 28%
Our country is disconnected from food supply
·       Forage crops can be converted to save water
·       Farmers love alfalfa: it’s reliable with a steady demand
Need for alternatives
·       Rotational crops
·       Possibly hydroponics
