>> Do you know the difference between cool weather crops and hot weather crops? Do you know where each is grown in CA? Do you know that the weather in N. San Joaquin Valley is considerably different than the weather in S. San Joaquin Valley?

None of that is relevant to the discussion. Growing certain crops takes what it takes. But this is what happens when you subsidize an industry, which is precisely what CA is doing with its water, then you have a downside you have to live with. Allow markets to take over and this problem will sort itself out, given time.

I've seen Ag subsidies at their worst, and they do not work out well for grower, taxpayer, or purchaser of products. Everything about them is bad. The ultimate lose, lose, lose, lose situation.

>> Did you know that CA is the largest agriculture producing state and that you are dependent on the food it produces?

I'm not dependent on any food produced in CA.
