Yeah, I remember driving down hwy 99 a few years back and seeing all that "valuable" farm land laying fallow for lack of water. With huge billboards blaming Congress !
Are you telling me it's more profitable to not plant crops (where's the Profit$ in that?), than it is to grow hemp, which uses relatively very little water ?
Are you aware of the. Thousands of products made with hemp ?
With this whole push to get off fossil fuels, Hemp would be the rational #1 choice, since it can do Anything petroleum can do....Better !
Who's the largest Ag landowner in usa ? Pill Gate$... Is that a clue ?

I watched it happen in the 90's in Mendocino and Sonoma.
I grew up in the Foothills from the 60's. Watched all the Flatlanders move up from LA and Sf. Watched the vineyards move in.

Yes, that's true I said and meant Industrial Hemp. And all it's spin-off industry. Oil, fuel, plastic, cloth, animal feed, a thousand products besides rope. Little water, no pesticides...

Yes, almonds really suck the water.
Maybe 1 day Cali will see the benefits of a Robust Hemp industry... Lol

Yes, it's a beautiful picture. I used to live there. I watched thousands of acres of that pretty forest destroyed.
Things are screwed when one is called sanctimonious for pointing out a simple truth and fact.
But hey, screw the Earth and all the animals... We've got some Wine to drink... Plenty Profit$ to make.
Oh, and Save the Rainforest... Lol

Shall we discuss the Millions of gallons of Water that grapes use in a state in the middle of a multi year drought ?
Or is that Too Real to consider ?

Where ? In Mendocino they allowed 5 acres of forest to be cut for grapes.
So the corporations. Bought up hundreds of adjoining 5 acres plots. Then Clear Cut them for Wine grapes.
Home owners can also grow, so many bought their 5 acres, cleared it and planted grapes. After a few years so many grape growers brought the Price of Grapes down so low it was no longer profitable...

How sad ! Y'all down voting the Truth of where wine comes from.
I've seen thousands of acres of Oak and Redwood forests Clear Cut and Animal Habitat destroyed...
Raping the Earth, So Wine Snobs can get drunk !

Those aren't grapes. They're the Oak trees that are Slashed and destroyed so grapes can be planted.
Yes, wine destroys native forests !
Guilt free wine ???
