It is ridiculous.

It's not a great solution, and not the only solution, but I'd rather start by paying Big Ag not to grow water-hogging cash crops like almonds and pistachios and (regrettably) cutback on others like rice, citrus, and stone fruits. It just doesn't make sense to continue growing crops like these where water is a dwindling resource.

There are multitudes of other actions, of course. Ag is not, and should not, be made the only villain.
