            As global warming continues, we are going to continue seeing record droughts and many places are, simply, going to have to live with far less water. But, more specifically, it means we are going to need to innovate both how cities and agriculture do business. So, we discuss how water is used in agriculture and how the greatest gains in water use efficiency will have to come from irrigation.
