I think this year we're getting your rain. Wish we could send some of it over that way --

Carla, Welcome to the list, lots of nice folks here. We are located in East
Texas and are having the same trouble. Very dry and our water source is
about gone. It is a farm pond that holds 14 acre feet of water. Any way pray
for rain. Now about the drip tape. I have done two things that work (1)
After the lines are put out when we plow we cover the lines, this helps a
lot. (2) We have taken 5 gallon buckets and cut them off to about 3" high,
set these around the fields and keep them full of water. (Just to water the
critters) It works. Bill

Hi,
I'm new to the list, and just wanted to say Hi to everyone. I have been
reading the latest posts, with interest. My husband and I farm about 5
acres here in central Oklahoma. We sell our produce at the farmers
market.
Right now we are struggling through the drought, and the critters that
keep chewing up our drip lines. We can't turn the drip on without walking
every single line looking for holes. If anyone has any suggestions for
deterring these water starved creatures I would sure appreciate it!
Carla
