California farmers, strained by years of drought, will get the highest allocation of water since 2019 for the year
California farmers have largely gone without allocated water during the past three years, the driest on record in the state., the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation said Wednesday.
Much of the water California farmers rely on comes from the snowpack in the Sierra Nevada mountains, which is corralled into reservoirs when it melts off in the spring and delivered by federal and state officials to irrigate crops. They had largely gone without during the past three years, the driest on record in the state. They now stand to get at least 35% of their contracted supplies.
