摘要

Water is scarce throughout much of the western United States. West of the 100th meridian, evaporation exceeds precipitation rates, and average annual rainfall is less than 20 inches annually. Regardless, population in western states has increased rapidly, and the region continues to support significant amounts of agricultural production. From 2000 to 2010, the population of the West grew by 13.8%, or 8.7 million people. California's $2.2 trillion economy is the seventh largest in the world; population in this state increased from 15.7 million people in 1960 to 38.8 million today. California's agricultural industry generates roughly $37.5 billion annually, more than that of any other state.
