The Trump administration's recent release of water from two dams in California's Central Valley appears to be a political move against water policies blamed for Los Angeles wildfires. However, experts assert that these releases don’t benefit farmers, who require water during the growing seasons, since the water won’t reach Southern California. State and federal officials typically manage water releases delicately to ensure there is enough for future demands. Concerns arise over the appropriateness and timing of this release, particularly given upcoming storms and farmers' needs.
The significant dam releases in California's Central Valley seem designed to make a political statement amid Trump's claims about water policy and wildfires.
Water experts noted that the releases would not reach Southern California, and expressed concern over the timing, as farmers face irrigation needs in spring.
