In places around the world, supplies of groundwater are rapidly vanishing. As aquifers decline and wells begin to go dry, people are being forced to confront a growing crisis.

Much of the planet relies on groundwater. And in places around the world – from the United States to Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America – so much water is pumped from the ground that aquifers are being rapidly depleted and wells are going dry.

Groundwater is disappearing beneath cornfields in Kansas, rice paddies in India, asparagus farms in Peru and orange groves in Morocco. As these critical water reserves are pumped beyond their limits, the threats are mounting for people who depend on aquifers to supply agriculture, sustain economies and provide drinking water. In some areas, fields have already turned to dust and farmers are struggling.

Climate change is projected to increase the stresses on water supplies, and heated disputes are erupting in places where those with deep wells can keep pumping and leave others with dry wells. Even as satellite measurements have revealed the problem’s severity on a global scale, many regions have failed to adequately address the problem. Aquifers largely remain unmanaged and unregulated, and water that seeped underground over tens of thousands of years is being gradually used up.

In this documentary, USA TODAY and The Desert Sun investigate the consequences of this emerging crisis in several of the world’s hotspots of groundwater depletion. These are stories about people on four continents confronting questions of how to safeguard their aquifers for the future – and in some cases, how to cope as the water runs out.

I met Samson Ogbole (who invented SOILLESS FARMING in Nigeria) at the YPard Cafe event I attended with my friend Yomi on Saturday 26th June 2018, he spoke passionately about soil-less farming and showed us video proof of farms he had and still working on. I was inspired by his presentation and the level of work he is doing in the Agric sector in Nigeria, so I decided there and then to interview him.

Samson is the CEO of PS Nutrac and has also set up quite a number of commercial farms across Africa. (All third-party videos were provided by Samson Ogbole)

Even though it is often regarded as a new idea, hydroponic has actually been in existence for many years. Find out the potential of this method of farming in food security and job creation.
