System Narrative Template:

Irrigation potential is restricted to a small area around Willard.
Ground water is available with wells producing from 670 to 920 gpm.
Center pivot irrigation is used. Soils are HEL with high sand content.
Terrain is relatively flat with less than 1 percent slope. Crops include
alfalfa, beans and small grains.

These practices are designed to reduce evaporation losses, to replenish
soil moisture and protect it from wind. Nutrient management is needed to
protect closed underground water basin. Surface roughening is used as
last resort during windy drought conditions. This system addresses all

System Narrative Template:

These areas are irrigated from perennial streams and free flowing wells
fed from Sacramento mountain springs (Penasco, Cuevo, Rio Felix). These
streams are fed by the Yeso formation and developed on major n/s faults.
Soil depths vary from 12\" to 60\" of silt loams. Rainfall varies from
15\" to 24\", 50% of which occurs in June to September. Irrigated lands
are supplied by individual ditches, diversion dams, and Artesian wells
and most use group acequias for delivery. Pasture is the main crop. All
owners of irrigated lands have substantial rangeland areas also.

System Narrative Template:

The setting is located in Southwest Chaves County, Eastern Otero County,
West Eddy County and Southeastern Lincoln County. This includes the
upper elevations of MLRA cp-4 and the lower elevations of MLRA AN-3. The
range sites are limestone hills, loamy, draws and shallow. Precipitation
ranges from 15\" to 22\" and 80% occurs in the months of July, August,
and September. Juniper proliferation and associated herbaceous ground
cover production. This area is in the yeso acquifier (Artesian) recharge
area. Primary grazers are cattle and deer.

Major range sites include Sandy Loam, Shallow, Clayey, and Breaks.
Rainfall averages 12\"-15\". Generally in fair condition with stable to

The setting is in plains and rolling hills below the foothills of the
Carrizozo, Jicarilla, White and Gallinas mountains. The soils are loamy
and shallow with fair to good range condition with a stable to slight
upward trend. The precipitation averages from 11 - 15 inches annually.
These are primarily cattle ranches with supplemental income generated
from antelope hunting fees.

System Narrative Template:

Prescribed grazing will improve productivity and fencing will improve
livestock distribution. The combination of these, along with improved
livestock water facilities will ensure that range trend continues to
improve. This will eventually lead to increased profitability and
adequately addresses all other resource concerns.

System Narrative Template:

Base waters are well established but fencing, pipelines and tanks and
troughs are needed for livestock distribution and implementation of a
prescribed grazing system. This will increase plant vigor and
reproduction. Brush management is needed to control cholla cactus and
improve the range condition trend. This system adequately addresses all
identified resource concerns.

System Narrative Template:

Characterized by gently rolling uplands interspersed with relatively
smooth valleys. Occasionally marked by narrow steep canyons. Average
precipitation is 14 - 16\" with average temperature of 50 degrees with
extremes of -10 to 95 degrees. Typical high winds October to May
averaging 20 mph with extremes to 60 mph are common. Soils are loamy and
derived from basalt. The major brush problems are juniper expansion.
Ranching operations are cow-calf or stocker (yearling) operations.

CP-3 range sites which may include Loamy, Limy, Shallow, Gravely, Swale,
Bottomland, Shallow Limestone, Limestone Hills, Breaks, Uplands Sandy,

Cow/calf/yearling operations on poor to fair range condition sites.
Wildlife species of concern consists primarily of mule deer and/or
antelope. Cool season forage species lacking, undesirable brush is
invading.

System Narrative Template:

Grazing management will improve forage production and quality; brush
management will improve production of species for grazing animals. Water
development and fence will better distribute stock for improved
nutrition. All of these together will adequately address all resource
concerns and improve resources.

Plant community has good composition, but health and vigor need
improvements. Planned grazing system carried out with facilitating
practices of fences and water facilities will improve plant vigor,
health, and production, and reduce soil loss.

System Narrative Template:

The setting is in the foothills and valleys of the Carrizozo, White,
Jicarilla and Gallinas mountains. The soils are loamy and shallow range
sites with occasional foothills in low good to fair condition with
declining trend primarily from woody plant invasion. The precipitation
averages 14-18\" annually. These are primarily cattle ranches with
supplemental income generated from hunting fees and the sale of wood
products such as fence posts and firewood.

System Narrative Template:

Prescribed grazing and brush management and prescribed burning will
improve range condition and trend. Fencing will help control time of
grazing to improve ground cover, which will reduce sheet and rill
erosion and subsequently reduce gully erosion. All other practices will
address livestock distribution problems and improve wildlife habitat
management. This system addresses all concerns.

Prescribed grazing and brush management will improve range condition and
trend. Fencing will help control time of grazing to improve ground cover
and reduce erosion. Base waters are well established but pipelines and
tanks are needed for livestock distribution to improve range trend. All
identified resource concerns are adequately addressed.

System Narrative Template:

Characterized in general by gently undulating to rolling uplands
interspersed with relatively smooth valleys and basins. Average annual
precipitation is 14-18 inches. Average temperature is 50 degrees with
extremes of 30 degrees below zero to 104 degrees F. Soils: Mesic,
Moisture Regime Ustic and Aridic Ustic. Approximately 60% of ranches are
cow/calf operations and 40% yearling operations. Wildlife consists
primarily of mole, deer, and pronghorn antelope. Ranch income is
generally supplemented by hunting fees.

Applying the planned resource conservation practices on this rangeland
will address resource concerns. Improving vegetative composition will
reduce erosion, prevent gulling, improve water quality, and quantity the
habitat for both domestic and wildlife will be improved. It will also
improve plant vigor and reproduction and increase the economic benefits
to producer.

Cow-calf and steer operations are normal. Range condition values from
low good, to high fair in a stable trend. Antelope numbers provide an
opportunity to supplement ranch income through fee hunts. Some Juniper
encroachment may exist in lower valleys.

These practices work together to allow initiation of a rest-rotation
system that will improve grass health, vigor and production. Animal
water and forage requirement will also be met. Improved vegetative
production will reduce runoff and flooding as well as increase water
infiltration. This system addresses all identified resource concerns.

These practices work together by allowing to initiate a rest-rotation
system that will improve grass health, vigor and production. Animal
water and forage requirement will also be met. Improved vegetative
production will reduce runoff and flooding as well as increase water
infiltration. The reduction of woody species will maintain the grazable
area.

Grazing management will improve forage production and quality; brush
management will improve production of species for grazing animals. Water
development and fence will better distribute stock for improved
nutrition. All of these together will adequately address all resource
concerns and improve resources

System Narrative Template:

The setting is in the Pecos/Canadian Plains and Valleys. Elevations
range from 5200 to 7000 feet. Characterized by gently undulating to
rolling uplands interspersed with relatively smooth valleys and basins.
Average annual precipitation 14 to 18 inches, mostly falling as intense
summer storms. Average frost-free season ranges from 140 - 160 days.
Temperatures range from -20 degrees to 95 degrees F. Wildlife species of
concern are mule deer and elk.
