PREFACE
Volume III, Special Reports, comprises a group of special compilations that present
final summaries and results for the 1954 Census of Agriculture. Part 6, Irrigation in
Humid Areas, a cooperative report by the Bureau of the Census, U. S. Department of
Commerce and the Production Economics Research Branch, Agricultural Research
Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, presents data obtained by a mail survey of
operators of irrigated farms in 28 Eastern States on acres irrigated in 1954 and 1955;
specified irrigation facilities, including pumps; source of water; source of power; method
of applying water; largest acreage irrigated in any year; year irrigation began; number of
times each crop was irrigated; and cost of irrigation systems.
The planning, compilation of statistics, and the preparation of this report were under
the supervision of Ray Hurley, Chief of the Agriculture Division, Bureau of the Census,
and Elco L. Greenshields, Production Economics Research Branch, Agricultural Re-
search Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture. They were assisted by Robert L.
Tontz and Marlowe M. Taylor, Production Economics Research Branch, Agricultural
Research Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, and Snider W. Skinner, Russell V.
Oliver, William F. Kauffman, and Gladys L. Eagle, Bureau of the Census, U. S. Depart-
ment of Commerce. Data for the graphs and State maps were compiled by the Production

Agriculture. It will present statistics for approximately 900
counties and State economic areas in 12 Southern States and
Missouri for the number and characteristics of multiple-unit
operations and farms in multiple units.
Part 2. — Ranking Agricultural Counties. This special report will
present statistics for selected items of inventory and agricul-
tural production for the leading counties in the United States.
Part 3. — Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, District of Columbia, and
11. S. Possessions. These areas were not included in the 1954
Census of Agriculture. The available current data from vari-
ous Government sources will be compiled and published in
this report.
Part 4. — Agriculture, 1954, a Graphic Summary. This report will
present graphically some of the significant facts regarding
agriculture and agricultural production as revealed by the 1954
Census of Agriculture.
Part 5. — Farm-mortgage Debt. This will be a cooperative study
by the Agricultural Research Service of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture and the Bureau of the Census. It will present,
by States, data based on the 1954 Census of Agriculture and a
special mail survey to be conducted in January 1956, on the
number of mortgaged farms, the amount of mortgage debt, and
the amount of debt held by principal lending agencies.
Part 6. — Irrigation in Humid Areas. This cooperative report by
the Agricultural Research Service of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture and the Bureau of the Census will present data ob-
tained by a mail survey of operators of irrigated farms in 28
States on the source of water, method of applying water, num-
ber of pumps used, acres of crops irrigated in 1954 and 1955,
the number of times each crop was irrigated, and the cost of
irrigation equipment and the irrigation system.
Part 7. — Popular Report of the 1954 Census of Agriculture. This
report is planned to be a general, easy-to-read publication for
the general public on the status and broad characteristics of
United States agriculture. It will seek to delineate such as-
pects of agriculture as the geographic distribution and dif-
ferences by size of farm for such items as farm acreage,
principal crops, and important kinds of livestock, farm facili-
ties, farm equipment, use of fertilizer, soil conservation prac-
tices, farm tenure, and farm income.
Part 8. — Size of Operation by Type of Farm. This will be a coop-
erative special report to be prepared in cooperation with the
Agricultural Research Service of the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture. This report will contain data for 119 economic sub-
regions, (essentially general type-of-farming areas) showing the
general characteristics for each type of farm by economic class.
It will provide data for a current analysis of the differences
that exist among groups of farms of the .same type. It wUl
furnish statistical basis for a realistic examination of produc-
tion of such commodities as wheat, cotton, and dairy products
in connection with actual or proposed governmental policies
and programs.

INTRODUCTION
History of the Census of Irrigation.— Inquiries relating to
irrigation have been included in each decennial Census of
Agriculture since 1890. A special Census pertaining to ir-
rigation in 32 States and territories was taken in 1902. The
1902 Census included 11 arid States and territories, 6 semiarid
States and territories, 8 humid States and 6 rice-growing States,
plus the Hawaiian Islands. Beginning in 1910, a special Census
of Irrigation has been taken in the United States for States and
territories in which irrigation was most extensively practiced.
The States included in the Irrigation Census in 1910, 1920, and
1930 were the 17 Western States and Arkansas and Louisiana.
Florida was included in 1940 and 1950. In the mid-decennial
Censuses of Agriculture in 1935, 1945, and 1954, inquiries were
included relating to the acreage irrigated in all States.
The special survey of irrigation in 1955 for which data
are presented in this report covers the 28 Eastern States which
are not included in the regular decennial Censuses of Irrigation.
Legal basis for this special report.— Authorization for the
1955 Survey of Irrigation in Humid Areas is covered by Act of
Congress (Title 13, U. S. Code) approved August 31, 1954,
which includes provisions for the mid-decade Censuses of
Agriculture. This report was prepared cooperatively by the
Production Economics Research Branch, Agricultural Research
Service, United States Department of Agriculture, and the Bureau
of the Census, United States Department of Commerce.
DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATIONS
Farms reporting.— Farms reporting represent the number of
farms for which the particular item was reported. For purposes
of tabulation, the questionnaires obtained in the special survey
were divided into two groups. The first group comprised all
farms for which usable questionnaires were obtained in the
special survey. These farms totaled 14,541 for the 28 States.
The data given in Tables 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 14 relate to these
14,541 farms. The second group of farms comprised those for
which the cost of the irrigation system was represented. These
farms totaled 6,414. The data given in Tables 4, 6, 8, 10, 12,
13, and 15 relate to these farms only.
In the case of 196 questionnaires, the data obtained for this
special survey cover more than one Census farm as the special
survey questionnaire was filled out by the landlord of a multiple-
unit landholding. The number of multiple-unit operators from
whom special questionnaires covering more than one Census
farm were obtained are as follows:
Connecticut 1
Missouri 2
Virginia 9
North Carolina 86
South Carolina 18
Georgia 20
Kentucky 15
Tennessee 21
Mississippi 24

Land irrigated.— Generally, land irrigated represents land to
which irrigation water was applied. Data are presented for three
categories of irrigated land as follows:
(1) Largest acreage irrigated in any one year
(2) Acreage irrigated in 1954
(3) Acreage irrigated in 1955
The data on the largest acreage irrigated in any year were ob-
tained by asking each farm operator to list the largest acreage
irrigated. The number of acres irrigated in 1954 and 1955 were
obtained by adding the acreages for the various crops reported as
irrigated in each of these years. Thus, the acreage irrigated for
1954 and 1955 may be greater than the total acreage of land to
which water was applied, as account was not taken of the dupli-
cate counting of acreage on which two different crops were
harvested during the same year. For example, if 4 acres of
lettuce were irrigated in 1954 and later the same land was
planted to string beans which were irrigated, the total acreage of
land irrigated for 1954 would be 8 acres. This procedure re-
sulted in some overstatement of the acreage of land actually ir-
rigated. In comparing the acreage reported as irrigated in 1954
as shown by the special survey with the Census of Agriculture,
this overstatement needs to be taken into account.
Questionnaire used. -A questionnaire, designated Form A16,
"Survey of Irrigation in Humid Areas 1955," was used. (A fac-
simile of the questionnaire appears on page XLVI.)
The number of questions in the questionnaire was necessarily
limited to key items relating to irrigation in humid areas. Ad-
ditional information about variation in humid areas had been re-
quested by several interested groups, but a pretest of a more
extensive questionnaire in 6 selected countywide areas indicated
that satisfactory data could not be obtained by mail for many
items relating to the operation of irrigation systems.
The enumeration.— The questionnaires were mailed in De-
cember 1955, to each farm operator in the 28 Eastern States
who reported irrigatedacreagein the 1954 Census of Agriculture,
except those who irrigated cranberry bogs and a small number
for whom complete addresses were not available. Generally, all
the data were collected by mail. However, enumerators obtained
by personal visit questionnaires for those farm operators with
100 acres or more of irrigated land in 1954 who did not submit
a report by mail. Data in Table 1 indicated the completeness of
the coverage by the special survey of farms reporting land ir-
rigated in the 1954 Census of Agriculture.
Cost of irrigation systems.— The questionnaire for the survey
specified that the cost of irrigation systems was to be reported
only in case irrigation began in 1946 or later. Therefore, the
data given on cost of irrigation systems relate only to farms on
which irrigation began in 1946 or later. The total number of
farms whose operators reported the year in which irrigation was
begun as 1946 or later was 9,494. However, only 6,414 of these
farms reported complete data on irrigation costs and only these
farms were included in the tabulations for farms whose opera-
tors reported the cost of irrigation systems. The inquiries re-
garding cost of irrigation equipment, cost of land leveling and
ditching, cost of construction of reservoirs and dams for
storing water and for drilling wells for irrigation purposes, re-
late to the original cost without allowance for depreciation or
change in price level.
Irrigation facilities.— Farm irrigation in the humid areas
generally requires the use of pumps, some kind of power, and
sprinkler equipment. However, a few farmers who used gravity
flow from lakes, streams, and artesian wells, require very
little equipment. Also, users of city water usually do not re-
quire pumps and power plants for operating their sprinkler
systems. The questionnaire did not provide for reporting the
number of storage facilities, such as dams and reservoirs, for
irrigation water. Also, no provision was made for obtaining the
size of the constructed storage facilities. These constructed
storage facilities vary greatly in size as well as in cost.

IRRIGATION IN HUMID AREAS
Source of water. --The questionnaire provided for indicating
the following sources of water used for irrigation:
Wells
Natural streams or rivers
Natural lakes or ponds
Springs, seepage, farm run-off (not streams)
City, town, or community water supply
Irrigation or drainage district or company
Other
Some farm operators reported more than one source of
water. In making the tabulations, provision was made only
for the tabulation of data for the three most important sources
for each farm. The questionnaire did not list constructed
ponds or reservoirs as sources of water. However, many
farm operators indicated ponds or reservoirs as sources on
the questionnaire. Unless some other source was indicated,
constructed ponds and reservoirs were classified as springs
in regard to the source of water.
The classification "streams only" used in the statistical
tables refers to natural streams and rivers. "Lakes only"
refers to natural lakes and ponds. The classification given
in the statistical table for springs actually includes springs,
seepage, and farm run-off (not streams).
In Tables 3 and 4, farms reporting combinations of various
sources of water are listed in the same order that water sources
are listed on the questionnaire and data for farms whose op-
erators reported several sources are included only once in
the totals. For example, farms whose operators reported
wells and streams as the source of water are included in
the grouping of wells, and designated wells and streams.
Data for these farms are not included again under streams.
Generally, most farms obtained irrigation water from a
single source and the significant data in most of the tables
may be analyzed by examining the figures for the important
sources of water without considering the data for the several
groups of farms obtaining water from more than one source.
Source of power.— The questionnaire provided for reporting
three sources of prawer as follows:
Tractor
Electric motor
Other motors or engines
"Other motors or engines" includes internal combustion
engines of all types except tractors.
Method of applying water.— Six methods of applying water
were listed on the questionnaire as follows:
Portable pipe and sprinkler
Fixed overhead irrigation
Portable gated pipe
Ditches and furrows
Flooding
Other
More than one method of applying water was reported by
many farmers. The tabulation procedure provided for the sum-
marizing of data for two methods of applying water for each
farm. When more than two methods were reported for a farm,
the data were summarized for the two most important methods
only.
Other methods include applying water with tank trucks,
garden or other type of hose, underground pipe, and pumping
water by a contractor.
Year irrigation began.— The question on this item was intended
to obtain the year irrigation began on the farm and not by the
1955 operator of the farm. A farm may have been operated
by several persons since irrigation began.
Legality of water use. — In general, answers to the question
on legality of rights to the water used for irrigation were
not restricted to cases of actual legal action. They also in-
cluded oral threats of legal action.
In a number of cases, users of city water reported that le-
gality of their use of water had been challenged. This usually
meant that restrictions were placed only on the day or time
of watering or the amount of water used. These cases were
not considered as challenges to the right to use water.
PRESENTATION OF STATISTICS
Organization of tables.— Data obtained in the 1955 Survey of
Irrigation in Humid Areas are presented in 8 summary tables
and in 16 tables giving data for individual States. Both summary
and State tables that give data by States contain data for farms
reporting, acres irrigated, and specified irrigation facilities,
classified according to such items as source of water, source
of power, and cost of irrigation systems.
The data in Summary Tables I to VIII relate only to the 6,414
farms for which the cost of the irrigation system was com-
pletely reported.
Extent of irrigation according to 1955 survey. — A total of
14,541 usable questionnaires was received in the 1955 special
survey. For 1954, the survey reported 545,671 acres as irri-
gated. This acreage exceeded that for 1955 by 12 percent.
The largest acreage irrigated in any year was 646,247 acres,
or 18 percent more than the 1954 irrigated acreage. This
largest acreage probably represents the minimum potential area
that could be irrigated in any one year by the farms reporting
irrigation in 1954.
The 1955 survey as compared with the 1954 Census of Ag-
riculture.—A comparison of farms reporting and number of
acres irrigated as shown by the 1955 Survey of Irrigation and
the 1954 Census of Agriculture, is presented in Table 1. The
information on acreage obtained from the 1955 survey equaled
93 percent of the total acreage reported by the 1954 Census
of Agriculture. For individual States, the acreage of irrigated
land reported by the survey as compared with the 1954 Census
ranged from 39 percent for Maine to more than 110 percent
for Indiana. The method of obtaining the number of acres
irrigated for the special survey by adding the number of acres
of crops and pasture irrigated resulted in some overstatement
of the actual area irrigated because of the counting more than
once of the acreage on which more than one irrigated crop
was harvested in 1954.
In using the 1955 survey data, two significant qualifications
of the data need to be considered. First, the acreage irrigated
in the humid area varies appreciably from year to year because
of variation in rainfall and, second, the acreage irrigated has
increased rapidly during recent years. These two facts make
the data from the 1955 survey less representative of the current
situation than would otherwise be the case.
Precipitation in 1954-1955.— Data on precipitation by months
during the growing seasons of 1954 and 1955 are presented
in Table 2 and a series of maps on pages XLIL to JILYL. Although
these data do not fully indicate the need for moisture by crops
as the data relate to entire States and to specific months, they
do indicate roughly the relative need for irrigation in 1954
and 1955. In the summer growing months in the humid States,
rainfall is quite variable. Crops and pastures frequently
suffer from lack of rainfall during crucial growing periods.
The data presented inTable 2 and the accompanying maps show
the variation of rainfall from normal for 1954 and 1955. In
general, precipitation during the 1954 growing season was much
less than during the corresponding period of 1955. June of 1954
was especially dry; rainfall was 50 percent below normal in
9 of the 31 States as shown on the precipitation maps. During
July 1954, generally improved rainfall conditions prevailed, but
in August and September of 1954, rainfall was below normal
throughout much of the humid area.
INTRODUCTION
IX
In 1955, rainfall in the New England States, except in Con-
necticut, was less adequate than during the preceding year.
As a result, the 1955 irrigated acreage exceeded the acreage
irrigated in 1954 except in Rhode Island.
Farms and acreage irrigated.— In the 28 Eastern States,
most farmers irrigated relatively small acreages. Thirty-
eight percent irrigated less than 10 acres per farm, and a little
more than 18 percent irrigated from 10 to 19 acres. One-third
of all farmers reporting irrigated between 20 to 99 acres.
Relatively few farmers reported 100 or more acres irrigated.
However, more than 80 percent of the total irrigated acreage
was on farms reporting 30 or more acres irrigated.
Some indication of the total acreage that farmers are equipped
to irrigate is shown by the largest acreage irrigated in any
one year. The total of the largest acreage irrigated on each
farm for any year since irrigation was undertaken was 646,247
acres for the 28 States. This total exceeds the acreage irrigated
in 1954 by 18 percent and the 1955 irrigated acreage by 33
percent. An appreciable expansion of irrigated acreage could
take place in the humid area on the farms now irrigating.
In appraising changes in irrigation in humid areas, allowance
must be made for yearly variations. Irrigation in humid areas,
unlike that in arid regions, can be expected to vary consider-
ably from year to year as a result of variations in rainfall.
The acreage irrigated in each State ranged from less than
1,000 acres to more than 150,000 acres. The three leading
States were Mississippi, with 151,772 acres, followed by New
York and New Jersey, each with more than 60,000 acres.
Year farmers began irrigation.— The data indicate a rapid
rate of adoption of irrigation farming during recent years.
More farmers reported beginning irrigation in 1954 than in any
other year during the period 1946-1955. For the 28 States,
29 percent of the 14,541 farms reporting indicated that irriga-
tion was started in 1954. Of the 546,000 acres irrigated in
the 28 States during 1954, approximately 134,000 acres were
in farms on which irrigation was started during 1954. North
Carolina, with 789 farms, had a larger number of farms
reporting that irrigation began in 1954 than any other of the
28 States.
Data given in State tables under column headings 1955 or
later as the date of beginning irrigation do not indicate the
extent of new irrigation in 1955. The data are only for those
farms whose operators reported irrigation in 1954 and no
information was obtained for farms whose operators started
irrigation in 1955 or for farms whose operators did not report
irrigation in 1954. The small amount of irrigation shown for
farms starting irrigation in 1955 or later is the result of a
few reports that were received from farm operators who
obtained questionnaires from neighbors or for whom reports
were obtained by enumerators.
Source of water. — Water for more than 40 percent of all
farms reporting and approximately 37 percent of the irrigated
acreage in 1954 was obtained directly from streams (natural
streams or rivers). Wells were the second most important
source of irrigation water; they were reported by 19 percent
of the farms. Springs, seepage, and surface run-off (not
streams) were reported by 18 percent. Farms using wells
accounted for nearly 24 percent of the irrigated acreage
for 1954. Farms using spring, seepage, and farm run-off
(not streams) accounted for less than 9 percent of the 1954
irrigated acreage. Farms whose operators reported com-
binations of various sources of water represented only 13
percent of all farms, but reported a little more than 25 per-
cent of the acreage irrigated in 1954.
About 90 percent of the farms whose operators reported
the source of water as springs, seepage, and farm run-off
had reservoirs for water storage. Farmers who used other
sources of irrigation water reported reservoirs or dams
infrequently.
Farms for which streams were reported as sources of water
were widely distributed throughout all of the 28 States. Very
few farmers reported that wells were used for irrigation in
the New England States. The number of farmers reporting
wells outnumbered those reporting streams (natural streams
or rivers) as a source in 1954 in New York, Iowa, New Jersey,
Indiana, Illinois, and Minnesota. The use of city or municipal
sources of irrigation water was concentrated around large
centers of population in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts,
and Ohio. These four States accounted for nearly 64 percent
of the farmers reporting city, town, or community water supply
as the source of irrigation water.
Constructed reservoirs for storing irrigation water.— Forty-
two percent of all farms reported reservoirs and dams used
for storing water. It is likely that as more and more farmers
use irrigation, streams and similar sources will become more
fully utilized. As a result, farmers will undoubtedly rely to
an increasing extent on the use of their own constructed storage
facilities.
Operators of about a third of the farms with small, and ap-
proximately one- half of the farms with large irrigation enter-
prises reported water- storage facilities. In general, size of
irrigation enterprise, except for extremely small and large
units, had little effect on whether water- storage facilities
had been constructed.
Source of power for pumping.— Most farmers in the humid
area reported "other motors or engines" (internal combustion
engines of all types except tractors) as the source of power
for pumping irrigation water. Sixty-four percent of all farmers
listed "other motors or engines" as the source of power.
By States, the proportion reporting this source of power
ranged from 34 percent of all farmers in Mississippi to 92
percent in Delaware.
Electric motors and tractors were of about equal importance
as sources of power for pumping. These two sources, however,
were of relatively minor importance in terms of farms reporting.
Only 12 percent of the farmers reported using electric motors
as the source of power; and 11 percent reported tractors.
Combinations of tractors, electric motors, and other motors
or engines as a source of power were used on 7 percent of
the farms.
Method of applying water.— Sprinklers (including portable
pipe) represented the chief method of applying irrigation water
in the humid area. Over 78 percent of the 14,541 farms
for which irrigation was reported indicated that this method
was used for applying water.
Sprinklers are well adapted to irrigation in humid areas.
They can be used without extensive land leveling or ditch sys-
tems. Portable sprinklers can be easily moved from one
field to another as needed in different years or at different
times during the growing season.
Other methods for applying water, less frequently used
than sprinklers, included fixed overhead pipe, ditches, flooding,
and portable gated pipe.
In some States, methods other than sprinklers were more
commonly used. In Mississippi, where rice is the most
important irrigated crop, ditches and flooding were used
extensively. In this State, ditches and flooding, including
combinations with other methods, were repxjrted on 47 percent
X
IRRIGATION IN HUMID AREAS
of the 909 farms for which irrigation was reported. Fixed
overhead pipe was another method used in localized areas.
This method of application was used primarily for nursery
and flower crops.
Pumps used for irrigation.— Operators of a total of 13,662
farms, or 94 percent of all farms, reported the use of pumps
in 1955. The widespread use of pumps indicates that only
a small number of operators of irrigated farms rely on gravity
flow, artesian wells, or city water supply. A total of 17,588
pumps was reported for the 13,662 farms in the humid area. For
29 percent of the farms, more than one pump was reported per
farm.
In some instances, farmers who reported use of sprinkler
irrigation systems required no pumps as their irrigation was
done on a rental or contractual basis. No data are available,
however, as to the extent of this practice.
Cost of irrigation systems.— The data on the cost of the ir-
rigation systems were compiled for farms on which irrigation
began in 1946 or later (see definitions and explanations).
Average cost per farm was determined by dividing the total
cost of irrigation systems by the number of farms reporting.
The average cost per acre given in the tables presenting data
by States was computed by dividing the total cost of irrigation
systems by the acreage irrigated in 1954. The 1954 acreage
irrigated was used as the best available measure for computing
per-acre costs, as the acreage irrigated in 1955 was smaller
than the 1954 acreage because ofheavier rainfall and the "largest
acreage irrigated in any year" did not always relate to the equip-
ment in use at the time of the survey. Although this procedure
provides a comparison of various groups of farms, it does not
furnish typical per-acre costs for individual farms. For ex-
ample, the cost of leveling and ditching is shown in the tables
as $3.36 per acre for the 28 States. Actually, the leveling and
ditching costs for the 693 farms whose operators reported
leveling and ditching would be many times this amount.
The total cost reported for irrigation systems in the 28 States
for (1) irrigation equipment, (2) leveling and ditching, and (3)
constructing reservoirs and drilling wells was $35.5 million.
The major cost item in the irrigation systems was the cost of
irrigation equipment, which totaled $27.5 million and represented
78 percent of the total cost of irrigation systems. The cost of
constructing reservoirs and drilling wells, which was reported
for 61 percent of the farms, was second in importance and totaled
$7.2 million. It represented 20 percent of the total cost of ir-
rigation systems. Costs of leveling and ditching were reported
by only 11 percent of farms whose operators reported costs.
On many of the farms, the rolling terrain and shallow surface
soils preclude land leveling and use of ditches unless the ditches
are on the contour. The total of $0.8 million reported as the
cost of leveling and ditching was only 2 percent of the total
cost of irrigation systems in the 28 States.
The cost of irrigation systems averaged $5,542 per farm and
$145 per acre. The per farm cost of irrigation equipment
alone was $4,305. Constructing reservoirs and drilling wells
cost an average of $1,859 per farm. Leveling and ditching costs
averaged $1,193 per farm for the farms reporting this cost.
The classification of farms by total cost per farm shows a
wide range in total cost per farm. Almost two-thirds of the
6,414 farms reporting costs show a total cost of less than
$5,000 per farm. A total cost of $50,000 or more was re-
ported for a few farms.
Cost by acreage irrigated.— The tabulation of data for farms
classified by the largest acreage irrigated shows that total cost
of the irrigation system per farm increases as the irrigated
acreage increases. Operators of farms with irrigated areas
ranging in size from 1 to 9 acres reported an average cost of
$1,960 per farm. On the other hand, the average cost per farm
was $18,133 for farms in the 200 to 499 acre size group.
Ninety percent of the farmers who irrigated 1 to 9 acres re-
ported a total cost of irrigation systems of less than $4,000 per
farm. Seventy-six percent of the farmers with 20 to 29 acres
irrigated had costs per farm of $1,000 tD$5, 999. Approximately
50 percent of those with 100 to 199 acres irrigated had a total
cost of $10,000 and over, while 70 percent of those with 200 or
more acres had a total cost of $10,000 and over.
In general, farms with the larger irrigation systems had lower
per acre costs regardless of source of water or method of ap-
plying water. Costs for farmers who used streams as a source
were lower and varied less by size of irrigated acreage, largely
because the lower cost of developing this water source.
Most farmers reporting springs required the use of a dam or
reservoir and had costs somewhat similar to farms reporting
wells. For farms with sprinklers and streams or lakes as a
source of water, the average cost per largest acreage irrigated
was $116. Cost ranged from $48 per acre for farms irrigating
500 to 999 acres to $415 for farms irrigating less than 10 acres.
Although 44 percent of the irrigated farms had less than 20
acres under irrigation, only 20 percent of the total cost of the
irrigation systems was reported by these farms.
Costs of leveling and ditching were more significant on farms
irrigating large acreages than on those with small acreages.
Operators of farms with 500 to 999 acres irrigated reported that
27 percent of the total costs went for leveling and ditching.
The average per acre cost of irrigation systems for farms with
1 to 9 acres irrigated was $482. The cost per acre for farms
with more than 1,000 acres irrigated per farm was $56 per acre.
Costs were approximately the same per acre for farms with
200 to 499 acres irrigated as for farms with 500 to 999 acres
irrigated. Costs per acre of irrigation for the 200 to 499 acre
group was $81 and costs per acre for the 500 to 999 acre group
was almost the same. The difference in cost per acre for farms
with 1 to 9 acres irrigated and farms with 10 to 19 acres irrigated
was $160. As the irrigated acreage per farm increased the
cost per acre decreased. For example, the cost per acre for
farms of 10 to 19 acres irrigated was $322 as compared with
$237 for farms with 20 to 29 acres.
Cost by source of water.— The average cost of irrigation
wells was
farm cost
Farmers
per farm;
those with
farm was
municipal
systems per farm for operators who irrigated from
approximately $8,000. This was a higher average per
than for farms obtaining water from any other source,
who reported springs had an average cost of $5,031
those with streams, a cost of $4,679 per farm; and
lakes, a cost of $3,933 per farm. The lowest cost per
$1,544 for farms with small acreages irrigated from
water supplies.
Nearly all the costs of irrigation systems for farms using
natural lakes and city water supply as water sources were ac-
counted for by the cost of irrigation equipment. For farms with
other sources— streams, wells, and springs or surface run-off,
three- fourths of the total cost was made up by the cost of ir-
rigation equipment and one-fourth by the cost of reservoirs
and wells.
The recent rapid expansion of irrigation in the humid areas in
most instances utilized readily accessible supplies of water.
More than half of all farmers reporting costs relied on streams
and lakes as sources of water. Farmers reporting the larger
total costs for irrigation systems, particularly those with
$15,000 and over, depended less on streams and lakes than
farmers having a total cost of less than $15,000.
A larger percentage of the large irrigation enterprises use
wells as a source of water than do the smaller farms. Al-
though only 10 percent of the operators of all farms reported
wells; 25 percent of all those with a cost of more than $15,000
for the irrigation system reported wells as the source of water.
INTRODUCTION
XI
Total costs of irrigation systems per acre according to dif-
ferent sources of irrigation water varied only between $129 to
$138 except when springs, seepage, or surface run-off were used.
Since water storage reservoirs are required to collect spring
and run-off water, average per acre costs of $249 were higher
for farms with this source of water.
Cost by use of storage facilities.— Operators of about 50 per-
cent of all farms reported the use of constructed irrigation
storage. Seventy-six percent of those reporting costs of irri-
gation systems under $1,000 had no constructed storage. Opera-
tors of 62 percent of farms with a total cost of irrigation systems
of $1,000 to $1,999 reported no constructed storage, while 55
percent of those with a total cost of $2,000 to $2,999 reported
no constructed storage.
A larger percentage of the operators of farms with a cost of
irrigation systems of more than $3,000, reported constructed
storage facilities than farms with a smaller cost. Fifty per-
cent of the farms with costs of $3,000 to $3,999 had constructed
storage. Constructed storage was reported for 73 percent of the
farms with irrigation system costs of $50,000 and over.
Operators of farms in the 28 States for which constructed
storage facilities were reported indicated an average per acre
cost of irrigation systems of$184 as compared with $109 per acre
for farms with no constructed storage.
Cost by source of power. —The total cost of irrigation systems
on farms using motors and engines (internal combustion engines
other than tractors) as the source of power was $25.7 million
out of a total cost of $35.5 million for all farms. The cost per
farm for those depending on motors or engines other than
electric motors was $5,500.
The cost of irrigation systems for farms using tractor to
power irrigation pumps averaged $3,640 per farm, or 34 per-
cent less than the average for farms repxirting other motors
or engines as the source of power. This lower cost per farm
was due in large part to the exclusion of all tractor costs from
the costs of the irrigation equipment except when the tractors
were used only for pumping irrigation water. No attempt was
made to obtain and to include the costs of general farm tractors
in the cost of irrigation equipment. For farms using electricity
as the source of power, the total cost of irrigation equipment per
farm was slightly less than farms for which other motors or
engines were reported.
Of farms for which other motors or engines as a source of
power were indicated, 52 percent had costs of irrigation systems
of less than $4,000. Fifty-seven percent of the farms using
electricity as the source of jxjwer reported the cost of the ir-
rigation systems as less than $4,000. Of the farms with
tractors as a source of power, 64 percent reported the irrigation
system cost as less than $4,000.
Cost of irrigation systems per acre was $102 for farms using
electric motors and $161 per acre for farms using other motors
or engines. The differences in costs per acre between farms
using electricity and farms with other motors or engines appears
to be related more to the number of acres irrigated than to the
source of power.
Cost by method of applying water.— Costs per acre of irrigated
land for the different methods of applying water ranged from
$38 for flooding in combination with other methods to $577
for fixed overhead pipe. These per- acre costs varied not only
because of method of applying irrigation water, but also because
of the source of water, acreage irrigated, etc.
The average cost for farms with sprinklers was $166 per acre.
Farms with combinations of sprinklers with other methods
had a range in costs from $67 per acre for those using sprinklers
and ditches to $289 for those with sprinklers and overhead pipe.
The average cost for farms with sprinkler systems was $52o per
acre in Maine (average size of enterprise was only about 10
acres) and $89 in Missouri.
Of the operators of 132 farms who reported ditches as the
method of applying water, fifty-seven percent rejxjrted total
costs under $1,000. Another 20 percent had costs of $1,000 to
$1,999. Thirty-four percent of the 101 farms for which flooding
in combination with other methods was reported has costs under
$1,000 per farm for the irrigation systems. Fifteen percent
reported a cost of irrigation system of $1,000 to $1,999 per
farm.
On the farms with sprinklers, nearly 80 percent of the total
cost was represented by cost of equipment, about 20 percent by
the cost of storage facilities and drilling of wells, and less than
1 percent by the cost of land leveling or ditching. For farms re-
porting a fixed overhead pipe system, the cost of equipment
amounted to nearly 84 percent of the total cost. For farms with
ditch irrigation systems, nearly 50 percent of the total cost was
represented by the cost of irrigation equipment, 35 percent by
storage facilities and drilling of wells, and 15 percent by leveling
and ditching.
Crops irrigated.— For the 28 Eastern States, 543,647 acres of
crops and pasture were reported as irrigated in 1954. Of this
total acreage, approximately three-fifths was used for six crops:
Rice, Irish potatoes, pasture, corn, cotton, and tobacco. The
12 major crops on the basis of acreage irrigated comprise 80
percent of the total irrigated acreage for the 28 Eastern States.
In addition to the 6 crops listed above, these included hay, "other
vegetables," (vegetables other than tomatoes, snap beans, and
sweet corn), nursery and flower crops, tomatoes, snapbeans, and
sweet corn.
The distribution of irrigated acreage by crops in 1955 cor-
responds closely to that in 1954. In 1955, the six major crops
equaled 56 percent of all land irrigated, and the 12 most im-
portant crops represented, 75 percent.
More acres of rice than of any other crop were irrigated in
1954. Most of this rice was produced in Mississippi. Missouri
ranked second in the acreage of rice irrigated, but it had less
than 9 percent of the total irrigated acreage for the 28 States.
Almost two- fifths of the irrigated acreage of Irish potatoes
in 1954 was in New York. Ten other States— New Jersey,
Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Indiana, Connecticut, and Virginia— each reported more than
1,000 acres of Irish potatoes irrigated and the 11 States ac-
counted for 95 percent of the irrigated potato acreage.
The largest acreage of irrigated pasture, 8,373 acres, was
reported for Mississippi. Thirteen States, 10 Southern and
three Northern, had 92 percent of the irrigated pasture in the
28 States.
Irrigated corn was not concentrated in any particular State.
Missouri, with 7,339 acres irrigated, reported the largest
acreage. Thirteen States reported 1,000 acres or more of ir-
rigated corn.
Eighty- seven percent of the irrigated cotton acreage was
reported for Mississippi.
Approximately one-third of the irrigated tobacco acreage
was in North Carolina. Eight States— North Carolina, Con-
necticut, Kentucky, Georgia, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Vir-
ginia, and South Carolina had 98 percent of the irrigated tobacco
acreage for the 28 States.
New Jersey with 5,159 acres had the largest irrigated acreage
of tomatoes.
T^e acreage used for cranberry production, all considered
as irrigated land, was not included in the survey of irrigation
in humid areas. For the 28 States included, the 1954 Census
of Agriculture reported that 1,134 farmers harvested cran-
XII
IRRIGATION IN HUMID AREAS
berries from 22,598 acres of land,
were as follows:
The figures, by States
State Farms reporting Acres
28 States 1,134 22,598
Maine 8 11
New Hampshire 1 1
Massachusetts 817 12,889
Connecticut 4 36
New York 3 101
New Jersey 146 5,727
Wisconsin 150 3.798
Minnesota 5 35
The number of farms reporting and the acreage of cran-
berries harvested in 1955 was probably about the same as in
1954.
Number of times crops were irrigated.— Operators of ap-
proximately one-fourth of the farms reported irrigating two
times; a fourth reported irrigating five or more times; 20
percent of the farms reported irrigating three times; 18 per-
cent irrigated one time; and 12 percent irrigated four times.
Not only the frequency and amount of rainfall, but also the
length of growing season, soil type, and root system of crops
irrigated influenced significantly the number of times water was
applied.
Cotton and corn were irrigated fewer times in 1955 than
hay, tobacco, pasture, Irish potatoes, nursery and flower
crops. On nearly 80 percent of the farms cotton and corn were
irrigated only one or two times during 1955.
Legality of water rights.— While a challenge regarding the
legality of water rights was reported by only 2 percent of the
operators of 14,541 farms in the 1955 survey, this aspect of
irrigation may be much more significant than is indicated by the
small number of farms reporting. Some of the reports on the
challenge of the legality of the right to use water, may have in-
volved legal action, although no information is available re-
garding the exact number of such cases. The reports on water
rights were not restricted to cases where legal action had been
taken but included oral and other threats of legal action as
well. Farmers who used streams for water reported most of
the cases involving a question of legal rights. Laws are more
restrictive with respect to the use of streams than other sources
of water supply in most of the 28 States. Forty-four percent
of those reporting a challenge of the legality of water rights re-
ported the source of water as "streams only."
More than one-fourth of the farmers who reported a challenge
of the legality of water rights were operators of farms on which
irrigation began in 1954 or later. On approximately one-fourth
of the farms reporting a challenge of legality of water rights,
irrigation was begun during the period 1951-1953. Almost
three- fifths of those reporting the legality of water rights
questioned, reported the use of constructed reservoirs.
