Talking head male, mid 40's, Mr. Pucheu, standing in a field on his family farm in the San Joaquin Valley of California speaks with unseen interviewer about his family background and the drainage issues they're having on their farmland - salt water standing right below the surface of the field could impact production on the farm, the salt kills the plants.

CU Mr. Pucheu as he talks about how the saltwater kills the plants. The issue had developed over the past six years, and how a drain would be completed to the Bay and the drain would return the saltwater to the ocean, but problems occurred eliminating that solution. He states they are left with no solution.

Pucheu continues to answer questions from unseen interviewer. He talks about the costs it would take to come up with a technical solution that would treat the water but the process could be beyond the ability of the land to pay for it.

unseen interviewer asks why they couldn't just take this particular land out of production. Pucheu responds that there's over a million acres of land involved which would have a huge economic and environmental impact on the San Juaquin Valley and the entire state of California.
