This was the map supplement to the April 2010 magazine issue. A new chapter of river mapping reveals the true intricacies of river flow as headwaters feed consecutively larger tributaries that surrender their water to the main stream.

Weighing the export value of a crop against its impact on the local water supply, and charging more to reflect the water's value, could become part of the equation.
