Farmers are adapting to harsh conditions by changing their approach to farming. This involves planting fewer crops to conserve resources. The goal is to keep some crops alive despite the challenges.

Water is being carefully managed, with some fields receiving less or no water. This decision allows farmers to allocate water to other areas where it is needed more.

Further information on the situation and its impact on farmers is available from the Texas Corn Producers Association, whose president has discussed the strategies being used to cope with the drought.
