Imagine if water was priced at a level which showed its true value. Then we would had applied science and technology to manageg water resources.

Not only that there would had been a plethora of development of crops fo the arid regions. This is slowly changing. Soy is a temperate zone crop. Brazil adapted it to sub-temperate zone and it satrted goin up nort towards the tropical belt and being planted in areas where before it was not open to soy cultivation.

There was so much good land and good wehater that Brazil picked only the low hanging fruit (pun intended). Now as prices skyrocket, it becmoes economical to go for other areas where it was more difficult to plant.
