When is the last time you watered these plants behind us . Ten years ago. Are this is the exact opposite. California relies heavily on irrigation. He says dry farming not only saves water but seems to super charge the food with flavor. They taste so much better than irrigated crops. Are why is that . I think you get a concentration of sugars. Reporter he say there is are draw back with the yields being smaller and its risky because it depends on and relies on what Mother Nature gives. He says the practice is catching on on the small scale farms where growing food and preserving Natural Resources can go hand in hand. Back to nature. Can we scale it up and do it on a bigger farm . If hes growing raz berry that is taste like raz berries. I want to know how he did during brought. Apparently he has not watered for ten years. So aparently he did okay.
