a 1/1000th fractional interest in a share of 8.875% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the &ldquo;Series
A Preferred Stock&rdquo;), which we refer to in this prospectus as the depositary shares. The depositary shares are evidenced by depositary
receipts. 2,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by the depositary shares will be deposited with Continental Stock Transfer&nbsp;&amp;
Trust Company, as depositary. As a holder of the depositary shares, you will be entitled to all proportional rights, preferences and privileges
of the Series A Preferred Stock represented thereby, including dividend, voting, redemption and liquidation rights and preferences. You
must exercise such rights through the depositary. The liquidation preference of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock is $25,000.00
(equivalent to $25.00 per depositary share).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We will pay, when legally permitted, cumulative dividends on the Series
A Preferred Stock, from, and including, the date of original issuance, in the amount of $2,218.75 per share each year (equivalent to $2.21875
per depositary share each year), which is equivalent to 8.875% of the $25,000.00 liquidation preference per share of the Series A Preferred
Stock (equivalent to 8.875% of the $25.00 per depositary share). Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be payable quarterly in
arrears, on or about the 15th day of January, April, July and October of each year (or, if not on a business day, on the next succeeding
business day). The first dividend on the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by the depositary shares sold in this offering
will be paid on or about October 15, 2021. We will establish a segregated account that will be funded at closing with proceeds sufficient
to pre-fund eight quarterly dividend payments. The segregated account may only be used to pay when legally permitted, dividends on the
shares of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by the depositary shares sold in this offering and may not be used for other corporate
purposes.</P>

own approximately 45,000 acres of land with high-quality, naturally recharging groundwater resources in three areas of Southern California&rsquo;s
Mojave Desert &ndash; the Cadiz Valley (35,000 acres), Danby Dry Lake (2,000 acres), and the Piute Valley (9,000 acres) (&ldquo;Cadiz
Property&rdquo;). Our properties represent a unique private reserve of lands with vested water rights located in a remote area of eastern
San Bernardino County that is at the crossroads of major highway, rail, energy, and water infrastructure that supply and deliver necessary
resources to communities in California and across Western States. Our main objective is to realize the highest and best use of our land,
water, and related infrastructure assets in an environmentally responsible way. Our present activities are focused on developing our
assets to meet growing long-term demand for access to sustainable water supplies and agricultural products.</FONT></P>

faces systemic water challenges and is not able to ensure that all demands for water are safely and reliably met. We believe that the

at our properties in ways that are sustainable and responsive to California&rsquo;s resource needs.</FONT></P>

Water Project has completed extensive permitting and environmental review in accordance with local, state and federal law and is approved
to deliver a reliable supply of 50,000 acre-feet of water per year for 50 years to communities off of the Cadiz Property. Prior to construction
and implementation, the Water Project must complete contracts with participating water agencies, conveyance arrangements to deliver water
supplies to contracting water agencies, and arrange for facility construction, improvements, and financing.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">We
anticipate using two separate pipeline routes to convey water between the Cadiz Property and the service areas of our participating agencies.
The first route, or the Southern Pipeline, requires the construction of a 43-mile, approximately 55-85&rdquo; steel water conveyance
pipeline within a portion of the Arizona &amp; California Railroad Company&rsquo;s railroad right-of-way that crosses the Cadiz Property
and intersects with the Colorado River Aqueduct (&ldquo;CRA&rdquo;) in Rice, California. The CRA is owned by the Metropolitan Water District
of Southern California (&ldquo;MWD&rdquo;) and serves water providers in six southern California counties. The second route, or the Northern
Pipeline, contemplates the use of an existing 220-mile, 30&rdquo; natural gas pipeline that we optioned and acquired from El Paso Natural
Gas (&ldquo;EPNG&rdquo;) as a potential facility to convey water to the Cadiz Property for storage or from the Cadiz Property to parties
along the route. The Northern Pipeline extends from the Cadiz Property north-west to California&rsquo;s Central Valley, crossing the
Mojave River Pipeline and the Los Angeles Aqueduct before terminating near the California State Water Project in Wheeler Ridge.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">In
December 2020, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (&ldquo;BLM&rdquo;) granted to our subsidiary Cadiz Real Estate LLC two right-of-way
permits that grant us rights to operate the Northern Pipeline and transport water consistently across the route over BLM-managed lands.
The first right-of-way was issued pursuant to an assignment of a portion of an existing right-of-way held by EPNG and granted by BLM
under the Mineral Leasing Act that enables the continued transportation of natural gas. The second right-of-way was issued under the
Federal Land Policy and Management Act and authorizes the conveyance of water in the pipeline over BLM-managed lands.</FONT></P>

these BLM grants, conditions precedent in our Purchase &amp; Sale Agreement with EPNG were principally satisfied allowing for completion
of the Company&rsquo;s acquisition of the remaining 124-mile segment of the Northern Pipeline upon final payment to EPNG of $19 million,
which is required to be made no later than June 30, 2021. We are presently engaged in discussions with parties interested in using the
Northern Pipeline for conveyance, storage and supply. Prior to conveyance of water through the Northern Pipeline, we must secure permits
required by any definitive agreement to use the facility. All conveyance of water via the Northern Pipeline would be conducted in accordance
with applicable local, state and federal laws.</FONT></P>

also remain engaged with parties interested in taking deliveries from the Water Project using the Southern Pipeline route and the CRA.
Prior to construction of the Southern Pipeline, we must secure authorizations required to convey water in the CRA, including an agreement
with MWD and authorization from the California State Lands Commission under Water Code Sections 1810 - 1815. We expect to pursue these
approvals once definitive contracts with water providers are finalized.</FONT></P>

our working capital needs and development of the Water Project.</FONT></P>

expect to enter into concurrently with the closing of this offering, scheduled for July 2, 2021, a new credit agreement with one or more

loans to us in the aggregate original principal amount of $50 million. Our anticipated Credit Agreement with one or more affiliates of

an affiliate of BRS and Apollo Special Situations Fund, L.P. (&ldquo;Apollo&rdquo;) entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement,
whereby Apollo assigned to an affiliate of BRS, and such affiliate of BRS assumed, all of Apollo&rsquo;s rights, interests and obligations
under the Credit Agreement, dated May 1, 2017 (the &ldquo;Senior Secured Credit Agreement&rdquo;), subject to payment by BRS&rsquo;s affiliate
to Apollo of approximately $77.5 million in cash upon the closing of this offering, which, together with an issuance by us of 299,219
shares of common stock to Apollo upon the closing of this offering, will satisfy in full all our obligations to Apollo under the Senior
Secured Credit Agreement. We intend to use the net proceeds of this Offering and the BRS Credit Agreement to repay all our remaining indebtedness
under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, owed to an affiliate of BRS in lieu of Apollo, in the amount of approximately $77.5 million,

a new senior secured credit agreement with the lenders party thereto from time to time (the &ldquo;Lenders&rdquo;) and B. Riley Securities,
Inc. as administrative agent for the Lenders (the &ldquo;BRS Credit Agreement&rdquo;), pursuant to which the Lenders will make secured
term loans to the Borrowers in an aggregate original principal amount of $50 million (the &ldquo;Loans&rdquo;). The BRS Credit Agreement
will mature on July 2, 2024, unless the maturity is accelerated subject to the terms of the BRS Credit Agreement. Interest will be paid
quarterly beginning on September 30, 2021 at a rate of seven percent per annum.&nbsp; The obligations under the BRS Credit Agreement will
be secured by substantially all of the Borrowers&rsquo; assets on a first-priority basis, except as otherwise provided in the BRS Credit
Agreement, and by certain land owned by Octagon Partners, LLC, an affiliate of each of the Borrowers. In connection with any repayment
or prepayment of the Loans, the Borrowers will be required to pay a repayment fee equal to the principal amount being repaid or prepaid,
multiplied by (i) 0.0%, if made prior to the six-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans, (ii) 2.0%, if made on or after the six-month
anniversary of the closing of the Loans and prior to the eighteen-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans, (iii) 4.0%, if made on
or after the eighteen-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans and prior to the thirty-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans,
and (iii) 6.0%, if made at any time after the thirty-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans. At any time, the Borrowers will be
permitted to prepay the principal of the Loans, in whole or in part, which prepayment must be accompanied by any accrued interest on such
principal amount plus the applicable repayment fee described above.</P>

the Borrowers will be required to, within five business days after the receipt of the net cash proceeds, apply (i) 25%, in the case of
an issuance within six months of the closing of the Loans, (ii) 50%, in the case of any issuance immediately following the six months
anniversary of the closing of the Loans and up to and including the one year anniversary of the closing of the Loans and (iii) 75%, in

have sufficient cash available each quarter to pay dividends. The amount of dividends we can pay depends upon the amount of cash we generate

once the funds in the segregated account are exhausted, there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient cash flow from operations

offerings of debt or senior equity securities may adversely affect the market price of the depositary shares. If we decide to issue debt

Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond

Furthermore, we may elect to issue other securities for which we may seek to obtain a rating. If any ratings are assigned to the depositary

Conversion Rate (as defined in &ldquo;Description of Series A Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares&mdash;Conversion Rights&rdquo;) for
the Series A Preferred Stock (and depositary shares) is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. A failure to adjust (or to adjust
adequately) the Conversion Rate after an event that increases your proportionate interest in us could be treated as a deemed taxable
dividend to you. If you are a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in &ldquo;Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations&rdquo;), any deemed
dividend may be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable treaty,
which may be set off against subsequent payments on the depositary shares. In April 2016, the Internal Revenue Service issued proposed
income tax regulations in regard to the taxability of changes in conversion rights that will apply to the Series A Preferred Stock and
depositary shares when published in final form and may be applied to us before final publication in certain instances. See &ldquo;Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.&rdquo;</FONT></P>

depositary shares through, but not including, October 15, 2021.</P>

summary describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of our depositary
shares acquired in this offering. This discussion is not a complete analysis of all potential U.S. federal income tax consequences relating
thereto, and does not address foreign, state, and local consequences that may be relevant to stockholders in light of their particular
circumstances, nor does it address U.S. federal tax consequences (such as gift and estate taxes) other than income taxes. This discussion
is limited to stockholders that hold our depositary shares as a &ldquo;capital asset&rdquo; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;1221 of
the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant
to a stockholder&rsquo;s particular circumstances, including the impact of the alternative minimum tax, the special tax accounting rules
under Section&nbsp;451(b) of the Code, and the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. Special rules different from those
described below may apply to certain stockholders that are subject to special treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the &ldquo;Code&rdquo;), such as financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, broker-dealers and traders in
securities, persons owning or considered as owning shares representing more than 5% of our Series A Preferred Stock, U.S. expatriates,
&ldquo;controlled foreign corporations,&rdquo; &ldquo;passive foreign investment companies,&rdquo; corporations that accumulate earnings
to avoid U.S. federal income tax, corporations organized outside of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia
that are nonetheless treated as U.S. taxpayers for U.S. federal income tax purposes, persons that hold our depositary shares as part
of a &ldquo;straddle,&rdquo; &ldquo;hedge,&rdquo; &ldquo;conversion transaction,&rdquo; &ldquo;synthetic security&rdquo; or integrated
investment or other risk reduction strategy, persons who acquire our depositary shares through the exercise of an option or otherwise
as compensation, &ldquo;qualified foreign pension funds&rdquo; as defined in Section&nbsp;897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the
interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds, partnerships and other pass-through entities or arrangements, and investors
in such pass-through entities or arrangements. Such stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine the U.S. federal,
state, local, and other tax consequences that may be relevant to them. Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions
of the Code, and Treasury Regulations, rulings, and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be
repealed, revoked, or modified, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed
below. We have not requested a ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the &ldquo;IRS&rdquo;) with respect to the statements made
and the conclusions reached in the following summary, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with such statements and

option should not require constructive distributions of redemption premium if, based on all of the relevant facts and circumstances as
of the issue date, a redemption pursuant to the call option is not more likely than not to occur. The Treasury regulations provide that
an issuer&rsquo;s right to redeem will not be treated as more likely than not to occur if: (i)&nbsp;the issuer and the holder of the
stock are not related within the meaning of Section&nbsp;267(b) or Section&nbsp;707(b) of the Code (substituting &ldquo;20%&rdquo; for
the phrase &ldquo;50%); (ii)&nbsp;there are no plans, arrangements, or agreements that effectively require or are intended to compel
the issuer to redeem the stock; and (iii)&nbsp;exercise of the right to redeem would not reduce the yield on the stock determined using
principles applicable to the determination of OID under the OID Rules. However, the fact that a redemption right does not fall within
the safe harbor described in the preceding sentence does not necessarily mean that an issuer&rsquo;s right to redeem is more likely than
not to occur for this purpose, and such right to redeem must still be tested under all of the relevant facts and circumstances to determine
if it is more likely than not to occur. We do not expect that a redemption pursuant to the call option would be treated as more likely
than not to occur under the foregoing test. Accordingly, no U.S. Holder of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock should be required to recognize
constructive distributions of the redemption premium because of our call option. However, holders should consult with their own tax advisors
on the particular consequences to such holder of the call option under these rules.</FONT></P>

and (ii) the constructive distribution occurs at the earlier of the date the adjustment occurs under the terms of the Series A Preferred
Stock and the date of the actual distribution of cash or property that results in the constructive distribution. The final regulations

Holder receives the Alternative Form Consideration upon conversion of shares of our Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock, such U.S. Holder may
receive cash, securities or other property or assets, or a combination thereof. The term &ldquo;security&rdquo; is not defined in the
Code or applicable Treasury Regulations. Judicial decisions have held that the determination of whether a particular debt constitutes
a &ldquo;security&rdquo; is based on an overall evaluation of the nature of the debt. One of the most significant factors is the term
of the debt. In general, debt obligations issued with a weighted average maturity at issuance of five&nbsp;years or less do not constitute
securities, whereas debt obligations with a weighted average maturity at issuance of ten&nbsp;years or more do constitute securities.
If the securities a U.S. Holder receives upon conversion of shares of our Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock are not &ldquo;securities&rdquo;
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then such securities will be treated as other property or assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

be taxable as described under &ldquo;<I>Distributions</I>&rdquo; above, if a U.S. Holder receives the Alternative Form Consideration

It is possible that the conversion could be treated as a single recapitalization, as a conversion in part and a taxable redemption in
part or entirely as a taxable transaction, as briefly discussed below. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding
the consequences of such a conversion based upon the facts at that time.</FONT></P>

1471 through 1474 of the Code (commonly referred to as FATCA) impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on certain payments to a foreign

to withhold on certain payments and to collect and provide to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding U.S. account
holders of such institution (which includes certain equity holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign
entities with U.S. owners). FATCA also generally imposes a federal withholding tax of 30% on certain payments to a non-financial foreign
entity unless such entity provides the withholding agent with either a certification that it does not have any substantial direct or
indirect U.S. owners or provides information regarding substantial direct and indirect U.S. owners of the entity. An intergovernmental
agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify those requirements. The withholding tax described above

offering. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional depositary
shares or purchasing depositary shares in the open market. In determining the source of depositary shares to close out the covered short
position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of depositary shares available for purchase in the open market
as compared to the depositary shares price at which they may purchase through the option. &ldquo;Naked&rdquo; short sales are any sales
in excess of such option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing depositary shares in the open market.
A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price
of the depositary shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing
transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of the depositary shares made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the
completion of the offering.</FONT></P>

We will use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to repay our debt under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement as described under
&ldquo;Use of Proceeds&rdquo; in this prospectus supplement.&nbsp;&nbsp;Therefore, BRS has a &ldquo;conflict of interest&rdquo; in this
offering within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5121. Accordingly, this offering will be made in compliance with the applicable provisions of
FINRA Rule 5121(a)(2), which requires that a &ldquo;qualified independent underwriter&rdquo; as defined in FINRA Rule 5121(f)(5), participate
in the preparation of the registration statement and prospectus and exercise its usual standards for due diligence in respect thereto.
Boenning has agreed to act as the qualified independent underwriter for this offering and has agreed in so acting to undertake the legal
responsibilities and liabilities of an underwriter under the Securities Act, specifically including those inherent in Section 11 thereof.
QIU will not receive a fee for acting as the qualified independent underwriter for this offering. BRS will not be permitted to confirm
a sale to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without first receiving specific written approval from the account
holder.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B><A NAME="a_004"></A>About Cadiz</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We are a natural resources development company committed to providing
sustainable water and agricultural opportunities in California.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We own approximately 45,000 acres of land with high-quality, naturally
recharging groundwater resources in three areas of Southern California&rsquo;s Mojave Desert &ndash; the Cadiz Valley (35,000 acres),
Danby Dry Lake (2,000 acres), and the Piute Valley (9,000 acres) (&ldquo;Cadiz Property&rdquo;). Our properties represent a unique private
reserve of lands with vested water rights located in a remote area of eastern San Bernardino County that is at the crossroads of major
highway, rail, energy, and water infrastructure that supply and deliver necessary resources to communities in California and across Western
States. Our main objective is to realize the highest and best use of our land, water, and related infrastructure assets in an environmentally
responsible way. Our present activities are focused on developing our assets to meet growing long-term demand for access to sustainable
water supplies and agricultural products.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">California faces systemic water challenges and is not able to ensure
that all demands for water are safely and reliably met. We believe that the highest and best use of our assets will be realized by offering
a combination of water supply, water storage and agricultural projects at our properties in ways that are sustainable and responsive to
California&rsquo;s resource needs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">The Water Project has completed extensive permitting and environmental
review in accordance with local, state and federal law and is approved to deliver a reliable supply of 50,000 acre-feet of water per year
for 50 years to communities off of the Cadiz Property. Prior to construction and implementation, the Water Project must complete contracts
with participating water agencies, conveyance arrangements to deliver water supplies to contracting water agencies, and arrange for facility
construction, improvements, and financing.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We anticipate using two separate pipeline routes to convey water between
the Cadiz Property and the service areas of our participating agencies. The first route, or the Southern Pipeline, requires the construction
of a 43-mile, approximately 55-85&rdquo; steel water conveyance pipeline within a portion of the Arizona &amp; California Railroad Company&rsquo;s
railroad right-of-way that crosses the Cadiz Property and intersects with the Colorado River Aqueduct (&ldquo;CRA&rdquo;) in Rice, California.
The CRA is owned by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (&ldquo;MWD&rdquo;) and serves water providers in six southern
California counties. The second route, or the Northern Pipeline, contemplates the use of an existing 220-mile, 30&rdquo; natural gas pipeline
that we optioned and acquired from El Paso Natural Gas (&ldquo;EPNG&rdquo;) as a potential facility to convey water to the Cadiz Property
for storage or from the Cadiz Property to parties along the route. The Northern Pipeline extends from the Cadiz Property north-west to
California&rsquo;s Central Valley, crossing the Mojave River Pipeline and the Los Angeles Aqueduct before terminating near the California
State Water Project in Wheeler Ridge.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In December 2020, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (&ldquo;BLM&rdquo;)
granted to our subsidiary Cadiz Real Estate LLC two right-of-way permits that grant us rights to operate the Northern Pipeline and transport
water consistently across the route over BLM-managed lands. The first right-of-way was issued pursuant to an assignment of a portion of
an existing right-of-way held by EPNG and granted by BLM under the Mineral Leasing Act that enables the continued transportation of natural
gas. The second right-of-way was issued under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act and authorizes the conveyance of water in the
pipeline over BLM-managed lands.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">With these BLM grants, conditions precedent in our Purchase &amp; Sale
Agreement with EPNG were principally satisfied allowing for completion of the Company&rsquo;s acquisition of the remaining 124-mile segment
of the Northern Pipeline upon final payment to EPNG of $19 million, which is required to be made no later than June 30, 2021. We are presently
engaged in discussions with parties interested in using the Northern Pipeline for conveyance, storage and supply. Prior to conveyance
of water through the Northern Pipeline, we must secure permits required by any definitive agreement to use the facility. All conveyance
of water via the Northern Pipeline would be conducted in accordance with applicable local, state and federal laws.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We also remain engaged with parties interested in taking deliveries
from the Water Project using the Southern Pipeline route and the CRA. Prior to construction of the Southern Pipeline, we must secure authorizations
required to convey water in the CRA, including an agreement with MWD and authorization from the California State Lands Commission under
Water Code Sections 1810 - 1815. We expect to pursue these approvals once definitive contracts with water providers are finalized.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our agricultural operations provide the Company&rsquo;s principal source
of revenue, although our working capital needs are not fully supported by our agricultural lease and farming returns at this time. We
believe that the ultimate implementation of the Water Project will provide a significant source of future cash flow for the business and
our stockholders. We presently rely upon debt and equity financing to support our working capital needs and development of the Water Project.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our current and future operations also include activities that further
our commitments to sustainable stewardship of our land and water resources, good governance and corporate social responsibility. We believe
these commitments are important investments that will assist in maintenance of sustained stockholder value.<B>&nbsp;</B></P>

prospectus describes certain general terms and provisions of the debt securities.&nbsp; The debt securities may constitute either senior
or subordinated debt securities, and in either case will be unsecured, and may also include convertible debt securities.&nbsp; We will
issue any debt securities that will be senior debt under an Indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, or the
&ldquo;Senior Indenture.&rdquo;&nbsp; We will issue any debt securities that will be subordinated debt under an Indenture between us
and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, or the &ldquo;Subordinated Indenture.&rdquo;&nbsp; This prospectus refers to the Senior
Indenture and the Subordinated Indenture individually as the &ldquo;Indenture&rdquo; and collectively as the &ldquo;Indentures.&rdquo;&nbsp;
The form of Senior Indenture and the form of Subordinated Indenture are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this
prospectus forms a part.&nbsp; The term &ldquo;trustee&rdquo; refers to the trustee under each Indenture, as appropriate.</FONT></P>

Indentures are subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.&nbsp; The Indentures are substantially identical,
except for the provisions relating to subordination, which are included only in the Subordinated Indenture.&nbsp; The following summary
of the material provisions of the Indentures and the debt securities is not complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety
by reference to, all of the provisions of the Indentures, each of which has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of
which this prospectus is a part.&nbsp; We urge you to read the Indenture that is applicable to you because it, and not the summary below,
defines your rights as a holder of debt securities.&nbsp; You can obtain copies of the Indentures by following the directions described
under the heading &ldquo;Where You Can Find More Information.&rdquo;</B></FONT></P>

The Indentures do not limit the amount of debt, either secured or unsecured, which may be issued by us under the Indentures or otherwise.&nbsp;
We may limit the maximum total principal amount for the debt securities of any series.&nbsp; However, any limit under the Indentures
may be increased by resolution of our Board of Directors.&nbsp; We will establish the terms of each series of debt securities under the
Indentures in a supplemental Indenture, board resolution or company order.&nbsp; The debt securities under the Indentures may be issued
in one or more series with the same or various maturities and may be sold at par, a premium or an original issue discount.&nbsp; Debt
securities sold at an original issue discount may bear no interest or interest at a rate which is below market rates.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Ranking and Liquidation</I>. Prior to March
5, 2025, or the &ldquo;Mandatory Conversion Date&rdquo;, subject to applicable law and the rights of the holders of any other outstanding
series of our preferred stock, in the event of our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each share of Series

shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock), before any payment may be made to holders of our common stock or any outstanding series of our preferred
stock junior in liquidation preference to the Series 1 Preferred Stock. In addition, prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, subject to
applicable law and the rights of the holders of any other outstanding series of our preferred stock, holder of shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock will be entitled to participate pro rata on an as-converted into common stock basis with all of our common stock in the distribution

Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into 405.05 shares of our common stock (the &ldquo;Conversion Rate&rdquo;),
provided that the holder will be prohibited from converting shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock if, as
a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.9% of the total number of shares
of our common stock then issued and outstanding after giving effect to such conversion. On the Mandatory Conversion Date, each share of
Series 1 Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of our common stock at the Conversion Rate then in effect; provided, that
the shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will not automatically convert shares of our common stock to the extent that, as a result of such
conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.9% of the total number of shares of our common
stock then issued and outstanding after giving effect to such conversion. Any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock that remain outstanding
after the Mandatory Conversion Date as a result of such limitations will be convertible at any time thereafter, at the option of the holder,

Date, except as provided by applicable law, each share of Series 1 Preferred Stock will be entitled to 301.98 votes (the &ldquo;Voting
Rate&rdquo;) on all matters on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote (provided that no holder of shares of Series 1 Preferred

to the Mandatory Conversion Date, the vote or written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock, voting separately as a single class, will be required for certain amendments to our Certificate, to liquidate us, to incur certain
indebtedness other than permitted indebtedness, to enter into certain affiliate transactions, to issue additional shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock and to issue any capital stock senior or having parity in preference to the Series 1 Preferred Stock, other than preferred shares
that may be issued in one or more financing transactions as an alternative to our incurring, and which the gross proceeds of shall be
offset against, permitted indebtedness. Permitted indebtedness over which the holders of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will have
no voting rights consists of (i) our existing debt as of March 5, 2020 and the refinancing of such debt, (ii) up to $600 million of debt
that we may incur related to our southern pipeline project or our northern pipeline project (collectively, the &ldquo;Pipeline Water Projects&rdquo;),
(iii) <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">the establishment of related infrastructure and farming costs for developing agriculture on

shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will rank pari passu on an as-converted to common stock basis with all of our common stock as to dividends
and distributions. However, holders of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will not be entitled to participate in dividends consisting

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our Certificate and our Bylaws include provisions
that may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal that a stockholder
might consider favorable, including a proposal that might result in the payment of a premium over the market price for the shares held

Delaware law permits a corporation to, by provision of its certificate of incorporation, eliminate the personal liability of its directors
to the corporation or to any of its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for breach
of the director&rsquo;s duty of loyalty, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) for certain unlawful dividends and stock repurchases or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit.&nbsp; Our Certificate contains such a provision.</P>

who serve on our Board of Directors protection against awards of monetary damages resulting from certain breaches of their fiduciary duty,
including grossly negligent business decisions made in connection with, among other things, takeover proposals for us, and may limit our

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Special Meeting of Stockholders.</I> Our Certificate
prohibits stockholder action by written consent in lieu of a meeting of stockholders. Further, special meetings of stockholders may be
called only by our Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer or President. In addition, our Bylaws contain advance notice procedures
for stockholders seeking to bring business before the annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors
at the annual meeting of stockholders, and specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder&rsquo;s notice.
The foregoing could have the effect of delaying or preventing unsolicited takeovers and changes in control or changes in our Board of
Directors.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Effects of authorized but unissued common stock
and blank check preferred stock</I>. One of the effects of the existence of authorized but unissued common stock may be to enable our
Board of Directors to make more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a merger, tender offer,
proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our Board of Directors. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary
obligations, our Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, authorized but unissued shares
of common stock could be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent
or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer
or insurgent stockholder group, by putting a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support
the position of the incumbent Board of Directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In addition, our Certificate grants our Board of
Directors &ldquo;blank check&rdquo; power, which includes the power to create and establish the rights and preferences of one or more
series of preferred stock out of our authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock. One of the effects of the &ldquo;blank check&rdquo;
power may be to enable our Board of Directors to make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company as described
above. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, our Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not
in our best interests, one or more series of preferred stock could be created and shares thereof issued, without stockholder approval,
which action may prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction as described above. The creation
of one or more series of preferred stock and the issuance of shares of such preferred stock could also decrease the amount of earnings
and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. The issuance also may adversely affect the rights and powers,
including voting rights, of those holders.</P>
