FILE - In this June 3, 2013 file photo, farmer David Schwabauer, a partner/manager of Leavens Ranches, a fourth-generation avocado and lemon grower, tours his property's irrigation system in Moorpark, Calif. For years Schwabauer has watched groundwater levels retreat with higher demand from encroaching development, forcing ranchers and farmers to sink piping deeper into the earth or drill expensive, new wells for irrigation. In the heat of summer, he pumps 3,000 gallons a minute for his thirsty trees. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)
