Like Mariner points out, nothing grows there. The soil is so alkaline that even the sage brush can barely make it.

You’re right, it sure isn’t about farming. Maybe wanting to set up a home base for terror camps? Who knows what they’re up to?

I am astonished there is 1,760 acres of private land in or near Blythe.

It used to be all BLM.

Most of the population in Blythe are criminals and/or mentally ill.

Have they already grown alfalfa there or just planning on it?
