Walking on Water II

Justin Isherwood

0/5 ( ratings)

Walking on Water II is the continuation of the Central Wisconsin water narrative. How to create a sustainable farm sector with its sustainable aquifer and its sustainable landscape.
This is a collection of a Central Wisconsin farmer's thoughts on his craft as an irrigating farmer. How to make use of the aquifer without abuse of the aquifer.
These essays are an attempt to make peace with modern irrigation, modern cropping, modern demand against a cherished and singular landscape as is Central Wisconsin, also known as the Central Sands. This is a unique agricultural area, at once a land of highly productive irrigated agriculture and at the same time of forest, stream and lake ecology that is unique among high scale vegetable production.
Once this region was known as the Pinery, famous for its trout streams, glacial relief, its boreal forests; now carrying a major part of the nation's vegetable production, this northern tier state second only to sunny California.
How to manage the aquifer to a sustainable level is the question addressed by these essays.
