"All that’s grown in CA supports humans." This can be said about anything, but what matters is whether its is better to do something else to provide the same support. California only produces 3% of the country's hay. We could just grow a bit more elsewhere to compensate. Ending alfalfa in California wouldn't be a big deal. It's an extremely low value crop. Meanwhile, to grow this tiny amount of alfalfa we spend more than double all household water use in the entire state. Including swimming pools, toilets, showers, everything. It's inexplicably foolish.
