Download or read book Stealing the Gila written by David H. DeJong and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 1850 the Pima Indians of central Arizona had developed a strong and sustainable agricultural economy based on irrigation. As David H. DeJong demonstrates, the Pima were an economic force in the mid-nineteenth century middle Gila River valley, producing food and fiber crops for western military expeditions and immigrants. Moreover, crops from their fields provided an additional source of food for the Mexican military presidio in Tucson, as well as the U.S. mining districts centered near Prescott. For a brief period of about three decades, the Pima were on an equal economic footing with their non-Indian neighbors. This economic vitality did not last, however. As immigrants settled upstream from the Pima villages, they deprived the Indians of the water they needed to sustain their economy. DeJong traces federal, territorial, and state policies that ignored Pima water rights even though some policies appeared to encourage Indian agriculture. This is a particularly egregious example of a common story in the West: the flagrant local rejection of Supreme Court rulings that protected Indian water rights. With plentiful maps, tables, and illustrations, DeJong demonstrates that maintaining the spreading farms and growing towns of the increasingly white population led Congress and other government agencies to willfully deny Pimas their water rights. Had their rights been protected, DeJong argues, Pimas would have had an economy rivaling the local and national economies of the time. Instead of succeeding, the Pima were reduced to cycles of poverty, their lives destroyed by greed and disrespect for the law, as well as legal decisions made for personal gain.

Download or read book Natural Enemies of the Southwest A field guide to the arthropod natural enemies of southwestern field crops written by Lydia M. Brown and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide is designed to familiarize the grower, pest manager, and others with some of the important arthropod natural enemies in southwestern agroecosystems. The ability to identify which insects are present in fields and to understand their roles in the system can help the pest manager develop an integrated pest management (IPM) plan that considers and incorporates these beneficial species into their decision making process. Natural enemy conservation is central to the efficient and economic management of arthropod pests.Assembled by experts from Cooperative Extension and USDA in four states and complete with diagnostic tips and full color photography, this field guide should be useful to any student of natural enemies and IPM, especially in the arid and semi-arid regions of Arizona, southern California, New Mexico, West Texas, the Southern Plains of Texas, and the northern regions of Mexico in Baja California, Sonora, and Chihuahua.
Download or read book Shared Borders Shared Waters written by Sharon B. Megdal and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of papers examines water management in two of the world’s prominent, arid transboundary areas facing similar challenges. In the Middle East, the chronically water-short Israeli-Palestinian region has recognized the need both to conserve and supplement its traditional water sources. Across the globe on the North American continent, Arizona—a state in the southwestern United States bordering Mexico—relies significantly on the overallocated Colorado River, as well as on non-renewable groundwater supplies. For both regions, sustainable and cost-effective solutions clearly require innovative, multifaceted, and conflict-avoiding approaches. This volume is predicated on the role that “science diplomacy” can play in resolving difficult water-related issues. The history of natural-resources disputes confirms that the scientific approach can reveal ways to overcome division. Experience has shown that scientifically-trained experts who are sensitive to sociopolitical conditions can assist in developing and evaluating feasible water management solutions. The insights and expertise of a distinguished and diverse group of researchers fill these chapters. Contributors include established authorities as well as a number of budding scholars. In a field traditionally dominated by males and by engineers, this collection benefits from significant gender diversity and contributions from a broad spectrum of disciplines. Policymakers, water managers, specialists such as university researchers and consultants, and citizens all have an interest in finding sustainable strategies to address the many water-management issues discussed in this volume. The assembled papers underscore that much work remains to be done.
