The size of agricultural lands could become more variable, with loss of irrigatedagriculture in district 025 of the Mexican lower Río Bravo/Río Grande, due to increasing water demand from domestic, industrial,commercial, and municipal sectors in the municipalities bordering the Río Bravo/Río Grande, magnified by drought and thedevelopment of water demand of the Conchos river. 2004 artículo científico 0016-7169 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56843313 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=568 Geofísica Internacional application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Geofísica Internacional (México) Num.3 Vol.43 |
