SECTION 4 |
ON-FARM SURFACE WATER |
1. Did this operation irrigate with on-farm surface water including recycled water and on-farm reclaimed water in 2018? |
Recycled water is the reuse of surface or groundwater that was previously used to irrigate a crop (e.g. water from a tailwater reuse pit used for irrigation). On-farm reclaimed water is on-farm livestock wastewater that has been treated for non-potable reuse purposes. (For the purposes of this irrigation survey, to be considered an irrigation application of reclaimed water, at least 0.5 inches of reclaimed water must be applied on the area during the growing season.) |

For each crop listed, report the irrigated harvested acres in the first column. For selected crops, report the average yield from the irrigated harvested acres in the second column. Then report the average irrigation water applied per acre in either acre-feet or inches for the acres reported in column one. Report the crop as irrigated if water was applied to supplement rainfall, even if the amount of water applied was not sufficient to obtain maximum yields. Report nursery and other horticultural crops grown in the open in item 17. |

5. For each method used to irrigate or water nursery, greenhouse, or other horticultural crops under protection, report water sources by percent of source applied. If more than one source was used, report all that apply. For example, if the only source for hand-watered crops was ground water, then report 100 percent in column 1. If this operation used gravity irrigation and half of the water came from ground water and half came from on-farm surface water, then report 50 percent in column 1, row b and 50 percent in column 2, row b. |
