Ricelands: Cultivating California's Environmental Crop (FULL VIDEO)

Explore the significant role that California's rice fields serve in ecological conservation. As natural wetlands have diminished over California's history, these ricelands have become invaluable as surrogate wetland habitats, providing essential resources for millions of migratory birds during their seasonal flights. California's ricelands are also part of innovative efforts to support salmon populations. By mimicking the natural river environments that salmon require for development, rice fields are being transformed into nurseries for young salmon. Join us as we investigate how agricultural landscapes are supporting wildlife conservation and what this means for the future of species preservation. Through interviews with experts and on-the-ground footage, we gain a comprehensive understanding of the integral connection between rice farming and habitat restoration.
