A caller from Indiana talks about how many of the farms in his area are doing everything they can to get excess water away from their fields. The problem is they're not really preparing for a time when water might become a lot more scarce.

Hey Sam. This is Alan from Indiana. Allen from Indiana. What's on your mind? Well, I would have something political to say but more of the farming issue. I know Kowalski's a dairy farmer who does that for a living. I'm around the environmental aspect of what the farming Seas are. I worked at an education center. okay, and in my area, we have a different problem than what Kowalski has where it's dry and they're trying to get wet. Here Northern Indiana is basically a swamp. and all the fields around here have been drained. I don't know if you need tiling similar to what they do with the house with the drainage. okay. they'll run a pipe underground. yeah. and they're used to they've changed how they have been doing it as well. They used to do it to where they would put basically a drain pipe sticking out where the low spot is and run it into the ditch which we don't have Rivers here typically either we have ditches because it's all made to drain off as much water as possible. and with what the climate Sciences scientists are saying we're getting more and more water here. so we do have an issue with water. but instead of using water, we're trying they're trying to get rid of it as fast as they can. so we have issues with you know algae blooms in Lake Erie. Oh geez. and and and now with their new drain tiling system what they're doing is they're literally putting in like grid works of pipes with what they like a stock over them. so it's like something to prevent it from getting clogged. right like a filter and a filter over it and then they're putting these every like 30-40 feet. and then wanting them together. and then draining them all out. yeah, so you know in the future when we do have a drought here all of our groundwater will be gone. because there's no way to replenish your groundwater. and because it's not gonna oh it's not staying there it's basically ushered out yeah this is probably the best way to put it. yeah as fast as they can get rid of it. so you know we and why aren't they like I don't remember like pulling it in these big like sort of like man-like ponds. like why are they just putting it why aren't they I don't know contemplating? No, they don't want to have the solar issue coming up here now. as far as commercial solar. They don't want any of these Farmers to want the solar around here. because it's an eyesore. but yeah we have a monoculture field that is an eyesore that nothing lives in beside their corn because it doesn't need pollination it doesn't you know it doesn't need any of that stuff. they're there they're putting solar Farms everywhere Upstate in the area that I yeah I am. and well People say It's an eyesore. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO2tSrBVPws
