Abstract

Many greenhouse growers in the Half Moon Bay area were faced with the need to conserve water in 1976. Because of the drought, growers were limited by the water company to the same amount of water used in 1975. The problem was to cope with an expansion of greenhouse space with no possible increase in water delivery.
