Discussion Post Agricultural Ecology

 

I would like for you to post a recent news article (last 3 years) that highlights Florida water issues. Look for an article involving:

  • Heavy demand of water by commercial, real estate, and agricultural development that have put pressure on natural resources.
  • Environmental consequences of the depletion of groundwater resources.
  • Water use strategies designed to  balance water use
  • Water quality debate between environmental and agricultural interest groups

You should summarize the article, provide a link, and also relevant background information regarding the issue (which may require additional research and citation). Comment on whether you were aware of this issue prior to this assignment and your opinion on it.  You must also include a question in every post directed at your classmates.
