Can you grow your own food without irrigation? Do you know how to make the best use of the water you have? Are you able to build a survival garden that will survive a changing climate or drought?Water-Wise Gardening gives you the answers and will change the way you think about growing food. If you were raised on gardening books extolling the wonders of dense plantings in tiny beds, this book will open your eyes to an entirely new realm of knowledge. Our ancestors knew how to grow food without pressure-treated lumber, massive piles of mulch, fancy containers or garden sprinklers.

In Water-Wise Gardening, you'll learn how to simply and effectively grow food using ancient time-tested techniques that consume less water and less fertilizer and sometimes less effort. This new second edition greatly expands upon the groundbreaking work Steve did in his first edition and is a valuable resource for gardening in good times and in bad, helping you steward your liquid assets while still getting the best-looking and best-tasting produce you can imagine. This book focuses on how to grow food with limited water across the United States and Canada plus has new insight on how to irrigate and water wisely.If you are concerned about maintaining your family's food supply or farming with a minimal use of water, you need this book. Water-Wise Gardening is a must-have for every self-sufficiency library.

Now in a special updated 6th edition with a new formula for complete organic fertilizer, this complete guide to organic vegetable gardening addresses issues of soil, seeds, compost, and watering. Growing Vegetables West of the Cascades evolved from a self-published pamphlet to the master guide to organic vegetable gardening over the past 35 years. Steve Solomon, who founded the Territorial Seed Company, was one of the early proponents of organic gardening, and the first to codify and refine the best practices of small-plot vegetable gardening in the Pacific Northwest. The approaches to understanding and preparing soils, composting, chemical-free fertilizers, efficient uses of water, and garden planning are universal to any climate or region. Solomon gets specific in his extensive advice on growing specific crops--from tomatoes and beans to kale and turnips--in the gentle maritime Northwest climate. He lays out the principles, but advocates that readers think for themselves and grow their gardens as they see fit.

Large areas of crops are now grown under water-stressed conditions on non-irrigated and and under limited irrigation in semi-arid and arid regions. In the future, this area of water-stressed crops will increase as a result of increasing competition from other water users, declining ground water levels, and the bringing into production of fragile lands that have low water-holding capacity, such as sandy desert soils. Consequently, strategies and practices to increase total yields and efficient water use must be improved. After the introductory material and keynotes, the book is divided into four parts. Part I covers soil water management, Part II deals with model approaches to evaluate the soil-water-atmosphere interactions, Part III treats water saving techniques through soil conditioning, and Part IV discusses case studies of water management systems. Water Saving Techniques for Plant Growth thus represents a general account of interest and activities of the various scientific disciplines which are concerned in desert encroachment as part of global change.
