Water is the key. When crops aren\u2019t getting enough water, farmers have to find ways to bring water to the crops. This is called irrigation. Irrigation can change dryland into fertile farmland. To get the water needed for crops, we build reservoirs and drill deep wells. Irrigation is a big part of farming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The World Resources Institute has mapped out <em>where these water stresses exist<\/em> in the world. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wri.org\/applications\/aqueduct\/water-risk-atlas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Agriculture Exposure to Water Stress Map<\/a> measures water demand to supply. In other words, it takes into account the ratio of water withdrawal to availability. For example, countries like India, <a href=\"https:\/\/gisgeography.com\/morocco-map\/\">Morocco<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/gisgeography.com\/philippines-map\/\">Philippines<\/a> face high cropland water stress.

Bugs, worms, roots, and dead leaves make their homes in rich topsoil. In the soil business, this is the &#8220;organic material&#8221;. Let\u2019s say topsoil is comprised of 10% organic material and the rest is sand and rocks. The nutrients that plants take up in their roots come from that 10% organic material. Without organic material, hardly any plants could grow. And it takes centuries for topsoil to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But other factors come into play for crop production.
