Show Notes
Westlands Water Districts latest crop report reveals a challenging 2025 for farmers, with unreliable water supplies leading to a significant increase in fallow land. Agave farming surged as growers shifted to thirstier crops. Despite the districts criticism of initial water allocations, farmers are adapting, with one planning to expand agave on ninety more acres. Crop shifts are evident, with wine grapes dropping thirty-four percent and lesser crops like basil and broccoli booming. Despite challenges, production remained strong with over fifty high-quality crops grown using water-saving methods, and hemp acreage jumping one hundred thirty-three percent.
