About 10% ofVoS. cropland is irrigated. Agriculture is by far the biggest user of water in arid western states, including Colorado, Arizona, and California. As the populations ofthese states grow, there is ongoing connict between cities and farm regions over water. To ensure adequate water supplies for urban growth, cities are bUying water rights from farmers. This is often the least expenSive way to obtain more water, and it is possible for some farmers to make more money by selling water rights than by growing crops. Discuss the possible consequences ofthis trend. Is this the best way to allocate water? \Vhy or why not?
