outside of more than a few degrees over large acreage in an economical way, so this news is sad; but, this is also a diversified farm and should hopefully be able to sustain this season's catastrophic orchard fruit crop failure(s). Hopefully, the the next season's prospects will be better for the trees in the orchard and Tuscon won't suffer crippling spring and summer drought.
