As said, this blog will focus more in water issues. A once in 70 years drought is punishing Mexico and Texas. I think this year grain imports in Mexico and India will be larger, with better agricultural commodity prices. Mexico needs to improve water use in irrigation and in municipal distribution.

Drought in Mexico and Texas
As said, this blog will focus more in water issues. A once in 70 years drought is punishing Mexico and Texas. I think this year grain imports in Mexico and India will be larger, with better agricultural commodity prices. Mexico needs to improve water use in irrigation and in municipal distribution.

You have been to Mexico, but have you been to India?
India has lots of water opportunities for a man of your skill and knowledge. And increasingly, money to pay.
Anon.
This is going back a decade, but I remember seeing a video that stated that the Mexico City water system lost one third of the water pumped into it due to leaks.
Mexico has a lot of potential. On one hand Mexico operates two nuclear power plants imported from the United States.
On the other hand, Mexico has massive internal problems.
I should think before I post, uggh. I think the reactors are a good indicator of what Mexico could do if it had its political problems resolved.
Think Ronduck, think.
We should cut off ALL food imports to Mexico, India, Africa, and other nations so that their population levels will reach more sustainable levels.
The ONLY reason the population of those nations has grown so much is because of all the cheap food flowing their way from the USA.
Not really. They pay for the food.
Africa doesn't pay for all of its food, the others do as far as I know.
