California does the same in the central valley.
Almonds too.
The whole central valley is sinking at an alarming rate because of how quickly the aquifer is being depleted. No California politician is brave enough to do anything to take on the massive agribusiness using all this water irresponsibly because these companies run a lot of the state's politics and also they're afraid of the "ancient water rights" dating back to Spanish colonial water rights.
Oh yeah I know I live here. It fuckin sucks.
Mashallah I no longer live in the great Satan's great Satan.
