California farmers urged to reduce water consumption due to drought
The state of California decided to drastically reduce the water supply to farms due to the drought that lasted for the fourth year.
In particular, farmers were encouraged to reduce water abstraction from three different water sources.
Two months ago, the governor of Jerry Brown signed a decree compulsory limiting water consumption to 25%.
According to experts, this is the most severe drought during the observation period. As a result, many reservoirs are completely dry.
Earlier, Jerry Brown, for the first time in history, imposed a limit on drinking water consumption. The reason for such a radical step was the anomalous drought.
