Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive report of a US commission instructed by Congress to investigate the agricultural prospects of the western United States and particularly the arid lands west of the Rocky Mountains. The report provides a detailed look at the climate and agricultural practic…es in California, situating them within the broader context of the challenges and opportunities of arid agriculture. The author analyzes the unique climates of California's regions, discussing how distinct factors like rainfall, wind, and temperature affect the growing seasons and types of crops that thrive there. Through observation and interviews, the author delves into the techniques employed by farmers to cultivate crops in the face of limited rainfall, and explores the use of hardy, drought-resistant plants, as well as irrigation methods. The report emphasizes the potential for cultivating certain plants adapted to arid climates, such as eucalyptus and other trees, for both timber and environmental benefits. By examining the successes and challenges of agriculture in California, this book offers insights into the possibilities and limitations of farming in arid regions worldwide.
