Suitable Sites for Dry Farming

In order to construct this comprehensive map, an intricate process involving the amalgamation of various climate attributes and masking of federal and state-owned lands. The primary objective was to identify and delineate specific zones that exhibit successful implementation of Dry Farming techniques. With this map, you now possess a tool for evaluating your own farmland, enabling you to make informed decisions regarding the adjustment or even elimination of irrigation practices. Such modifications pave the way for the cultivation of heat-tolerant crops, which, in turn, can flourish and thrive in these specially designated areas. Furthermore, the increased preservation of our water resources through decreased irrigation ensures a greater volume of water remains within the natural streams and creeks, thereby fostering and safeguarding the vital health of aquatic ecosystems.
