Change Is Taking Place – Stuart Woolf

Change is taking place from Climate to new regulations that effect Agriculture. In California regulations to limit ground water irrigation will lead  many farmers to fallow up to 20% of their farms. Stuart Woolf, Executive Chairman of Woolf Farming & Processing believes growing Agave is a solution, since growing crops such as Almonds canrequire about 50 inches of irrigation per year whereas Agave gets by on about 2.5 inches. Stuart points out that with Agave, farmers will be able to fallow less, farm more of their property, keep more of their employees–helping big farms, small farms and the communities they live in. Some day we may look at Agave growing and distilling regions as we have Napa and Soooma Counties for wine. www.californiaagave.org
