Water-harvesting on arid coal mine soil for vegetable and fruit production
The Black Mesa Water-Harvesting Agrisystem is testing the feasibility of using water-harvesting techniques to reclaim strip mined land. Two different treatments, fiberglass-asphalt-chipcoat and salt, were applied to increase the runoff from the catchment areas. The water is stored in ponds to provid...
