John Wilson's recent article for the AFSA blog in honor of World Water Day 2023 offers valuable insights into the importance of restoring water cycles. Wilson emphasizes the need to restore ecosystems, especially farming systems, so that rainwater can infiltrate the ground and replenish the water table, rather than causing destructive runoff. He explains that healthy soils with abundant biological life allow for rapid water infiltration, which in turn leads to clean streams and rivers. According to John, this is a crucial indicator of a healthy water cycle in a given area.
