- The Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer has been declining since the 1950s as groundwater irrigation pumping increased, resulting in low water levels and high tensions.
If you control the food and water you control humanity
Who is behind this? Terribly sad 😪 there is plenty of water 💧this year. We need 🚜 farmers! Water is important for all of us.
Jervois mining and corrupt politicians!
Cobalt resources in Idaho are the reason.
The politicians sold out the Idaho farmers and American food supply so their stocks in mining and energy will skyrocket
Look into the cobalt mining in Idaho. Needs a lot of water...
Jervois Global Limited just got 15 million dollars and resumes Mining in June just west of🎉 Salmon
100%
So does the developers and investors for new housing so more people can move to IdaFornia my opinion
Economically and nationally this would be devastating. If we lose our crops, our food prices soar even more. This is calculated.
They killed the water to farmers so Jervois mining can take over their land to mine cobalt.
Water is also a YUGE component of cobalt mining.
Corruption is stealing land from farmers and giving it to corporations right in front of us.
I stand with farmers!
How about we tell all of these Golf courses to stop watering their lawns also. I also think these subdivisions and HOA can stop forcing people to water their lawns. While we are it lets force any new subdivisions going forawrd require to be a zeroscape type community. Too many people moving in and using up our most important commodity for the sake of having a pretty yard. Support the farmers and keep the Idaho economy strong.
It's not about golf courses. It's about changing the economy of Idaho.

@RealKlausSchwab no it isnt. It's about a senior water right user wanting their water over what's best for the state. The water rights in Idaho needs better management to benefit everyone.
@@lukelowe918 I disagree. It's much more than that.
The reservoirs are full. This is all nonsense.

But there is plenty of water, it is so full it is bursting over and farmers know this fact. So, I would sue the state.
🤔
Water levels ARE NOT LOW...they are at capacity and ground water has improved. Now as of yesterday they are dealing with huge flooding!! It's political .
Brad Little better step up for farmers.
Little Bradly is part of the problem. He has been bought by many special interests and does their bidding by putting the wrong person in the way of us Idahoans
@KTVB how about you do a story on the cobalt mines in idaho, its connected!
Alot of politicians, energy corp, and mining corporations are going to make a ton of money by shutting these farmers down, and mining idahos cobalt.
The governers stocks in energy and cobalt are probably skyrocketing.
Not the right time to shut off water! Don’t do it!
no water, no farmers, no food, no people.
Vry wonderful journalism from KTVB Idaho channel expressing vry deep & sincere concern bout Idaho ongoing water right curtailment rule & showing dere is a great optimism both parties r working to resolve water crises oderwise if deir planted potatoes crops failed due to water curtailment it will trickle financial anarchy & it's domino effects wilb felt by poor farmers agri rental groups communities businesses across da board vry hopefully parties wil kum to a prosperous agreement for a pleasant financial future for everybody in Great state of Idaho
Save all Idaho farmers.
If it is still the same as 1950 you have nothing to worry bout!!
How much do developers add to this?
Cobalt mining is the reason for this
Tell the truth......Cobalt mine......with politicians as investors. Do your research people of Idaho and spead the TRUTH.
UPDATE: Water Curtailment Order Lifted
Groundwater irrigators and surface water irrigators have completed a deal that saves 330,000 acres of Idaho farmland from being dried up and averts economic catastrophe in the state.
A mitigation agreement for 2024, brokered by Governor Brad Little and Lt. Governor Scott Bedke, has now been signed by all parties and has been submitted to the Idaho Department of Water Resources (IDWR for approval. When the deal is approved, IDWR will lift the curtailment for all nine ground water districts whose patrons irrigate with groundwater from the ESPA.
“This is a huge relief to our members, who have had their livelihoods threatened over the past month,” said TJ Budge, attorney for Idaho Ground Water Appropriators. “We want to thank Governor Little, Lt. Governor Bedke, Senator Van Burtenshaw and, especially, all of our groundwater district members for their sincere and significant efforts to get a deal done before it was too late.”

Not new, been fighting this in montana for 12 years
but some eastern country took water from ground to grow alpha alpha n send it back to thier place which use ground water extensively..
Little is done
Potatoes or electric car? This is a sceem created by the cobalt mining companies.
They Supply California. I have see food here with Idaho name on .. Food
The solution is obvious! More text us for the for the Rich and more restrictions on healthcare for women. Tax cost for the Rich are the answers to all problems, of course and preventing women from getting the healthcare they need to avoid dying is what God really wants!
How can so many Americans support a candidate for President who denies the threat of global warming and its current effects? The Idaho containment is just one small example. A candidate who, when President, took the US out of international climate treaties, seriously crippling the agreements and international efforts in the fight against climate change. A candidate who forbade EPA officials from researching the issue and engaging in international scholarship, and conferences.
There is not a water shortage. The fight is for control over water and the money to be made off the water. The same for the climate. We haven't stop using oil. We buy it from Venezuela and the Saudis. It is about money, wealth distribution and control. Wake up!
Stop the steal of Jr water users...!
