description The most notable problem, however, is the continual extraction of water for agricultural irrigation of alfalfa, which is being grown in the area to support, the cattle industry.\n Increased nutrients, then, may increase the efficiency of grazing snails (the growth of snails are naturally limited by phosphorus in the area) to a point where microbialite growth would be threatened. Since most freshwater springs are located on community-owned lands, the Conservancy has successfully mediated a sustainable use agreement with farmers on an 11,000-acre reserve.
