More specifically, farming and urban use 50% of the water California gets (river outflows to the sea are the other main place water ends up) Urban use is 10% and farming is 40% of that total water input. Almonds alone are 7% of ALL water, almost as much as the 10% urban. The level of subsidy the relatively unimportant crops get with their basically free water is astounding, especially considering the high urban prices of water |
