Sacramento liberals have tried to starve agriculture during California’s ongoing drought through water restrictions. But farmers could increase production, while decreasing water usage by 25,000 gallons per acre, if they increase the concentration of organic matter in the soil by one percent. One of California’s nicknames is the “Horn of Plenty,” because its $37.5 billion in annual agricultural sales is more than any other state in the nation. Due to a combination of soil and climate, California’s output per acre is 50 percent higher than neighboring states.
