Western Irrigated Agriculture: Tables

All Tables |  Tables in Groups

All tables summarize data by farm size and State

  1. Total irrigation values, all irrigated farms
  2. Average irrigation statistics (per farm)

    Tables 2-1 to 2-10 summarize weighted average farm-size statistics (by farm size class) for value of farm sales per farm, farm acres and irrigated acres by type per farm, and water use per farm and per irrigated acre.  more...
