God forbid, we’d actually drill some of our own. Besides, they’re not using it all!
Desert——-“A desert is a landscape or region that receives an extremely low amount of precipitation, less than enough to support growth of most plants. Deserts are defined as areas with an average annual precipitation of less than 250 millimetres (10 in) per year, or as areas where more water is lost by evapotranspiration than falls as precipitation.”
So, for a desert to suffer a drought, it much be less than less than 10 in./yr. Now, I can be wrong, because grade school was soooo long ago, but I’m remembering a number line…… apparently, a drought in a desert is defined by negative amounts of precipitation. Something like this……”Wow, did you see that non-storm last night? How much un-rain did we get?”……..reply, “Well I checked the rain gauge this morning, mine said we got -3 inches of rain!”
“Where I work in central Alabama — in Autauga, Elmore and Talladega counties — our growers are starting to get higher wheat yields. We need to get our yields up in the 70 to 70 to 80 bushels-per-acre range, and we have growers who can do that consistently. This past year was a challenge with the freeze, but we’ve had some growers bumping up against 100 bushels per acre,” Dec. 19, 2007
Not a mention of any drought….but, then there was the “freeze.”
