Comparing Alabama and New Mexico on rainfall and irrigation
The writer compares Albuquerque with Alabama noting eight inches of annual rain in New Mexico versus 50 to 60 inches in Alabama, and contrasts irrigation habits. He observes New Mexico’s water scarcity, dam projects above Albuquerque, and argues Alabama should expand irrigation, water conservation, and land use to prevent drought damage while maintaining river navigation.
