Flying a few weeks ago from North Dakota back to California I noticed as we flew over desert California areas circles where there is farming in the desert. It is like some corporation is tapping into an aquifer and has one circle of crop and these circles are scattered over the area. Some of the circles were no longer green like the water ran out in that area. I don't know how much money could be made from that sort of planting but it feels wrong to wring out the last bit of water in the desert.
