rent ways droughts can damage forests and can cause wildfires droughts cause forests to become dry which causes trees to die dead trees result in wildfires the u s drought monitor is released every thursday showing which parts of the u s are in a drought it started in 2000 and since then the longest duration of a drought in california lasted a total of 376 weeks it started on december 11 2011 and ended on march 5 2019 the most intense period captured on the drought monitor was on the week of july 29 2014 it showed that 58 41 of california s land was affected by a drought in 2014 2015 farm related losses in california totaled 5 billion and 20 000 farmers also lost their jobs citation needed economy edit agriculture is the primary industry in most of the central valley a notable exception is the sacramento area which hosts a large and stable workforce of government employees despite state hiring cutbacks and the closure of several military bases sacramento s economy has continued to expand and diversify and now more closely resembles that of the san francisco bay area primary sources of population growth are bay area migrants seeking lower housing costs augmented by immigration from asia central america mexico ukraine and the rest of the former soviet union 6 the central valley s high rates of poverty asthma and air pollution have impeded the valley from transforming its economy into relevance beyond its role as an agricultural breadbasket 50 agriculture edit crop fields in the united states the central valley is one of the world s most productive agricultural regions 51 5 more than 230 crops are grown there 5 on less than 1 percent of the total farmland in the united states the central valley produces 8 percent of the nation s agricultural output by value us 43 5 billion in 2013 52 california s farms and ranches earned almost 50 billion in 2018 53 the valley s productivity relies on irrigation from surface water and badly depleted underground aquifers 54 about one sixth of the us irrigated land is in the central valley 55 virtually all non tropical crops are grown in the central valley which is the primary source for produce throughout the united states including tomatoes grapes cotton apricots and asparagus 56 six thousand almond growers produced more than 600 million pounds 270 10 6 kg in 2000 about 70 percent of the world s supply and nearly 100 percent of domestic production 57 58 the us top four counties in agricultural sales are in the central valley 2007 data 6 59 county sales fresno county 3 731b tulare county 3 335b kern county 3 204b merced county 2 330b early farming was concentrated close to the sacramento san joaquin delta where the water table was high year round and water transport was readily available subsequent irrigation projects brought many more parts of the valley into productive use 60 the even larger california state water project was formed in the 1950s and construction continued over the following decades national farmworkers association nfwa edit in the 1960s farm labor leaders cesar chavez and dolores huerta organized mexican american grape pickers into a union the national farmworkers association nfwa to improve their working conditions this organizing took place primarily in the central valley because of the extensive agriculture especially in and around delano 61
