Minimizing the negative effects of drought depends on maximizing the way that soil captures water and makes it available to plants. Farmers, ranchers, and gardeners will learn how to get more water into the soil when it rains, keep water in the soil longer, and help plants — including pasture staples — to better extract water from the soil. Those who raise livestock can then delve deeper into ensuring adequate water supply for animals and providing emergency forage in a drought.
