Editing San Benito County, California (section)

==Economy==
The economy is statistically included in metro San Jose, though the dominant activity is agriculture. [[Agritourism]] is growing as the county has destination wineries, organic farms and quaint inns with views of cattle grazing. With concerns about how oil and gas operations could impact this sector of the economy and agriculture in general, the county voters approved a measure in 2014 that bans [[well stimulation]] techniques such as [[fracking]], acidizing and steam injection, along with conventional drilling in some areas. In the 1950s, the oil drilling industry had many wells and the county is over the [[Monterey Formation|Monterey Shale formation]] but there is very little activity now.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Cart|first1=Julie|title=Election win puts rural San Benito County on anti-fracking map|url=http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-san-benito-fracking-20141129-story.html|newspaper=[[Los Angeles Times]]|date=November 29, 2014}}</ref>
