Water conservation is critical to preserving our water sources for future generations. Studies show that up to 50% of the water we use to irrigate our lawns and landscape is not needed. The Texas A&M Agrilife Extension Service offers an online program called WaterMyYard which offers weekly watering advice based on an extensive network of weather stations and rain gauges and research to help you customize your watering needs.
