. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. â¢RED GOLD' (continued from page 4) Water of Prime Concern to Growers Having only the average layman's knowledge about ground water (well, maybe a little more; at least more than that of many a city dweller unfamiliar with wells, pump breakdowns, etc.), I was duly alarmed by some of the remarks made at a recent cranberry conference by Lloyd Thomas, head of the engineering staff. New England National Technical Center, Soil Conservation Service. The nation's ground water supply, accumulated over thousands of years, is being depleted at the rate of 21 billion gallons per day, said Thomas. Sounds like a mighty amount. Agriculture is the biggest user of ground water. In little more than a quarter of a century, irrigation use alone has expanded about 40 percent. And, you can be sure, usage will increase. No one should be more concerned about water conservation and the role of the Soil Conservation Service than the cranberry grower, with his/her need for the valuable resource.
