Irrigation has been a reality in agriculture for 6000 years, and it remains a cornerstone of agriculture today as farmers strive to meet the increasing food demands of ever larger populations. In Pillar of Sand, Sandra Postel examines the challenges to our modern irrigation society from greater water scarcity and soil salinity to rising tensions between countries over shared rivers.
