Agricultural / Food Processing

Any way you slice it, bringing food to our tables takes water, energy, and know-how. California's savviest farmers and food processors are taking advantage of technologies that take a bite out of energy expenses. These measures often involve improved water management systems, since the vast majority of electricity use in California's eight million agricultural acres is associated with water use. Today, Emerging Technologies is testing technologies that squeeze every drop of energy efficiency out of the wine, tomato, and dairy industries, among others.
