Summary[edit]

Description Aerial view of Sacramento, CA, on Wednesday, Apr. 15, 2015. The deep water shipping section of the Sacramento River is on the left, meets with Washington Lake and other portions of the river. The urban and industrial areas are next to larger agricultural areas of the central valley counties. During the drought many farmers have turned to micro irrigation for more yields with less water. From technical support to cost shared equipment, producers can seek help from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to create more profitable and sustainable businesses. Additionally, many producers rely on ground water, drawn from wells. Micro irrigation systems use significantly less water than conventional flood irrigation. Micro irrigation includes drip tubes that seep water below ground at the level of the plant roots; tubes on the ground that drip water in the row of plants, and elevated micro-sprinklers for tree orchards.
