This report was prepared under the direction of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA),

National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). Many people participated in the various

activities of the 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey and deserve recognition for their

contributions to the program.

NASS pays special tribute to the farm and ranch operators who furnished the information

requested. Their cooperation and support made it possible to collect and publish the data in

this report. Economic Research Service (ERS), other USDA agencies, and representatives

from State departments of agriculture offered significant advice during the planning, data

collection, and processing phases of this survey. They provided invaluable assistance at the

local level to farmers and ranchers completing census report forms. Also, NASS

acknowledges our partnership with the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Processing

Center in Jeffersonville, IN and the services they provided to collect and capture data.

Members of the Advisory Committee on Agriculture Statistics and representatives of both

public and private organizations made significant recommendations that helped establish data

content. NASS appreciates their strong and consistent support for census programs.

NASS expresses gratitude to the press, farm magazines, radio and television stations, farm

organizations, State departments of agriculture, and enumerators from the National

Association of State Departments of Agriculture for their help in publicizing the census and

encouraging cooperation of farmers and ranchers.

Introduction

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE SURVEY

The 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey provides

data that supplement the basic irrigation data collected

from all farm and ranch operators in the 2002 Census

of Agriculture. Irrigation data from this survey

combined with 2002 census data provide one of the

most complete and detailed profiles of irrigation in the

United States. 

The 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation survey collected

detailed data for on-farm irrigation practices in 2003.

These data include acres irrigated by category of land

use, acres and yields of irrigated and nonirrigated

crops, quantity of water applied and method of

application to selected crops, acres irrigated by type of

water distribution system, and number of irrigation

wells and pumps. Also, included are data for irrigation

expenditures in 2003 for maintenance and repair of

irrigation equipment and facilities; purchase of energy

for on-farm pumping of irrigation water; investment in

irrigation equipment, facilities, and land improvement;

and cost of water received from off-farm water

suppliers.

The 25,014 operations sampled for the 2003 survey

were selected from farms and ranches reporting

irrigated acres in the 2002 census, including American

Indian reservations. Farms that reported horticultural

crop sales of at least $10,000 and all institutional,

research, and experimental farms were excluded from

the survey. Therefore, 23,767 irrigation operations

were excluded from the sample. Most of the irrigated

farms (23,116) excluded were horticultural specialty

farms which accounted for 1,011,012 acres irrigated, or

2 percent of the land irrigated in 2002. In the 2002

census, 806 institutional, research, and experimental

farms accounted for 125,535 acres irrigated, or less

than 1 percent of all acres irrigated in the nation.

Some changes occurred between the 2002 Census of

Agriculture and the 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation

Survey. Between 2002 to 2003, 16,088 farms irrigating

2.9 million acres in 2002 ceased operation under the

name identifying them in the 2002 census. In addition,

results of the 2003 survey show 32,489 irrigation

operations reporting irrigation on 1.85 million acres in

2002 did not irrigate in 2003. No attempt was made to

identify and select new irrigation operations for 2003.

HISTORY

Selected irrigation data for on-farm irrigation

operations have been collected in the census of

agriculture since 1890. A census of farms which

reported irrigation in the 1900 Census of Agriculture

was authorized by Congress. Surveys of irrigation in

humid areas were taken in connection with the 1954

and 1959 censuses.

The 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey is the

sixth survey devoted entirely to collecting on-farm

irrigation data for the United States. The 1979, 1984,

1988, and 1994 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Surveys

were conducted by the U.S. Department of Commerce,

Bureau of Census. Responsibility for the survey was

transferred from the Bureau of Census to the U.S.

Department of Agriculture (USDA), National

Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) in 1997. The

1998 survey utilized the resources of the 45 NASS

State Statistical Offices (SSO) which expanded

opportunities for telephone follow-up or personal

enumeration of nonresponse cases. The 1998 Farm

and Ranch Irrigation Survey was the first survey to

collect and publish data for each of the 50 States.

Previous farm and ranch irrigation surveys published

data only for leading irrigation States, with a U.S. total,

excluding Alaska and Hawaii.
VI INTRODUCTION 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

AUTHORITY

The census of agriculture is required by law under the

“Census of Agriculture Act of 1997", Public Law 105-

113 (Title 7, United States Code, Section 2204g). The

law authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct

surveys deemed necessary to furnish annual or other

data on the subjects covered by the census. The 2003

Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey was conducted

under the provisions of this section.

FARM DEFINITION

The census definition of a farm is any place from

which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were

produced and sold, or normally would have been sold,

during the census year. The definition has changed

nine times since it was established in 1850. The

current definition was first used for the 1974 Census of

Agriculture and has been used in each subsequent

agriculture census and related surveys. This definition

is consistent with the definition used for current USDA

surveys.

WATER RESOURCES AREAS MAP

The map on page 1 shows Water Resources Areas

delineated on the basis of county boundaries that

approximate actual basin boundaries based on

topographic drainage characteristics. Data are

tabulated separately for each of the 20 water resources

areas shown on the map.

PERCENT OF NORMAL PRECIPITATION MAP

The map on page 2 shows the areas of the United

States with deviations from normal precipitation

during 2003. The map is included for reference

purposes only.

TABLES AND APPENDIX

Table 1 shows farms and acres irrigated for the 1982

through 2002 censuses for each State. Tables 2

through 41 present detailed irrigation operation data

collected in the survey from irrigation operations that

reported irrigated land in the 2002 census and also

irrigated in 2003. Table 42 presents data for farm

operations that irrigated in 2002, but discontinued

irrigation either temporarily or permanently in 2003

while continuing to operate a farm or ranch. Data from

the 2003 survey are reported for each State and for the

20 Water Resources Areas. Additional text tables are

shown in the General Explanation. The appendix

provides facsimiles of the report form used to collect

the data.

RESPONDENT CONFIDENTIALITY

In keeping with the provisions of Title 7 of the United

States Code, no data are published that would disclose

information about the operations of an individual farm

or ranch. All tabulated data are subjected to an

extensive disclosure review prior to publication. Any

tabulated item that identifies data reported by a

respondent or allows a respondent’s data to be

accurately estimated or derived, was suppressed and

coded with a ‘D’. However, the number of farms

reporting an item is not considered confidential

information and is provided even though other

information is withheld.

DATA PRODUCTS

The 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey data, as

well as the 2002 Census of Agriculture Volume 1

Geographic Area Series and related reports, are

available on the Internet at www.usda.gov/nass and in

printed reports. Printed reports can be ordered by

calling 1-800-727-9540.

CUSTOM TABULATIONS

Special studies such as the 2003 Farm and Ranch

Irrigation Survey and 2005 Census of Aquaculture are

part of the census program and provide supplemental

information to the 2002 Census of Agriculture in the

respective subject area. Results are published in print

and on the internet. 

Custom-designed tabulations may be developed when

data are not published elsewhere. These tabulations

are developed to individual user specifications on a

cost-reimbursable basis and shared with the public.

The census Volume 1 on CD-ROM is an alternative

data source that should be investigated before

requesting a custom tabulation.

VIII GENERAL EXPLANATION 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

General Explanation

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT

Planning for the survey started in 1999 with a review

of the previous farm and ranch irrigation survey.

Letters were sent to more than 200 individuals in

water-related government organizations, industry, and

academic positions to solicit their comments on report

form content and table format. Presentations were

made to several associations seeking their comments.

Sixty responses were received. All responses were

reviewed and categorized to evaluate data collection

feasibility and priority needs.

METHOD OF ENUMERATION AND DATA

COLLECTION

The 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey was

conducted primarily by mail and was supplemented by

telephone calls and personal enumeration by NASS

State Statistical Office (SSO) staff and enumerators.

A sample of 25,014 irrigators was selected and mailed

a report form in January 2004. This was a 6 percent

increase over the 1998 sample size and was designed

to enhance data quality for the 2003 survey. The initial

mail packet included a report form and letter

requesting a prompt response. The operators were

asked to complete and return the report form. The

initial mailing was followed by one follow-up mailing

to those who had not responded in the first 4 weeks.

The follow-up packet included a reminder letter and a

report form. Six weeks after the initial mailing, the

SSOs were provided nonresponse lists. SSOs made

telephone calls and personal visits to maximize the

response. For a description of the adjustment for

nonresponse, see Statistical Methodology.

DATA PROCESSING

All report forms were reviewed by NASS staff prior to

data keying to identify inconsistencies and ensure that

the data could be keyed. Major inconsistencies,

respondent remarks, blank forms, and large irrigation

cases were reviewed by analysts and adjusted prior to

data keying as needed. All forms with data were

scanned and keyed from image. Data from each report

form were processed through a computer edit which

flagged inconsistent entries. Each flagged entry was

reviewed manually. During the edit process, an

imputation program supplied missing data and made

adjustments based on responses of similarly sized

farms within the same geographic area. Data entries of

large magnitude and data items that were changed

significantly in the computer edit process were

reviewed and verified by analysts.

Prior to publication, tabulated totals were reviewed to

identify and resolve remaining inconsistencies and

potential coverage problems. Comparisons were made

to 2002 census data and other available check data.

DATA COMPARABILITY

The 2002 Census of Agriculture introduced new

methodology to account for all farms in the United

States. All 2002 published census items were

reweighted for incompleteness in the mail list. This

adjustment for undercoverage was also used for the

2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey. To provide

comparable data, 1998 data published in 2003 were

also reweighted for undercoveraage. An explanation of

the methodology is included in the 2002 Census of

Agriculture Volume 1, Appendix C.

Differences exist between the expanded results of the

2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey and published

data from the 2002 Census of Agriculture. Some of

these are as follows:

1. The survey excludes horticultural specialty farms

and institutional, research, and experimental
2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE GENERAL EXPLANATION IX

farms. The effect of these exclusions is listed in

the following table:

from survey . . . . . . 23,767 1,136,547

Eligible for selection 

in survey . . . . . . . . . 275,816 54,174,689

2. The survey includes data only for operators who

irrigated in both 2002 and 2003. Operators in

some areas, especially the Eastern States, irrigate

intermittently according to moisture needs.

Operators having irrigation capabilities may not

irrigate depending on the amount of rainfall for a

particular year or geographic area. The number of

operators who irrigated in 2002 but discontinued

irrigation in 2003 is tabulated in Table 42 by

reason of discontinuance.

3. Some operators reported that they had been

misclassified as irrigators and did not irrigate in

either 2002 or 2003. An estimated 22,719

operators with 948,400 acres irrigated in 2002 were

misclassified as irrigators in the 2002 census. This

is estimated by expanding reports in the survey

where the respondents reported that they did not

irrigate in 2003 or 2002. In addition to errors in

processing data, some operators misreported or

misinterpreted the questions. Most of the operators

misreporting irrigation in the 2002 census reported

irrigation of small acreages of vegetables, fruits

and nuts, tobacco, potatoes, or berries. Small

amounts of water were applied to these crops at the

time of transplanting. 

4. Some respondents indicated they had quit farming,

retired, moved, gone bankrupt, etc., since 2002.

After analytical review of the 2003 receipts, an

estimated 16,088 operators accounting for

2,941,413 acres irrigated in 2002 after expansion,

were dropped from processing because they were

no longer farming. Special care was taken with

large operations to ensure that they were not

erroneously dropped due to reorganization or name

change rather than discontinuing agricultural

operations. This included the use of field and

telephone enumeration.

5. New irrigators in 2003 (not included in the 2002

census) did not have a chance of being selected in

the sample and, therefore, were excluded from the

survey. It is believed that the impact of new

irrigators is probably minimal. This conclusion is

supported by comparisons between the 1997 and

2002 censuses which show little change in acres of

irrigated cropland harvested.

6. For the 2002 census and the 2003 Farm and Ranch

Irrigation Survey, farms were classified by type of

activity or activities according to the North

American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

Table 33 provides irrigation data for farms

classified by NAICS.

When comparing the number of farms and irrigated

acres between the 2003 survey and the 2002 census

published U.S. totals, most of the differences are for

operators reporting less than 100 acres irrigated. This

is expected since the excluded horticultural farms

average 48 acres irrigated per farm and the other

categories of discontinued or excluded irrigators

generally are smaller than average irrigators. Table A

shows acres irrigated in the 2003 survey (expanded)

compared with U.S. totals from the 2002 census. The

expanded survey accounts for 95 percent of all land

reported as irrigated in the 2002 census and all

irrigation characteristics associated with that land.

DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATIONS

This section provides definitions and explanations of

selected items that are used on the report form or in the

tables. A facsimile of the 2003 Farm and Ranch

Irrigation Survey report form is in the appendix.

Water Resources Areas (WRA)

Data from the 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey

were tabulated by WRA. Boundaries of these areas are

shown on the map on page I. These boundaries are

essentially the same as the water resources regions

(WRR) delineated and defined in the past by the U.S.

Water Resources Council. The areas differ somewhat

from the regions because of the method used for

boundary delineation. Region boundaries are

delineated on the basis of topographic drainage

characteristics, whereas areas are delineated on the

basis of county boundaries which approximate actual

drainage-basin boundaries. Geographic descriptions of

each water resources region that were used to

approximate the area included in each water resources

area are as follows:

01 New England Region - The drainage within the

United States that ultimately discharges into the Bay of

Fundy and the Atlantic Ocean. These points of

discharge are located within and between Maine and

Connecticut; Long Island Sound and the St. Francis

River, a tributary of the St. Lawrence River.

02 Middle Atlantic Region - The drainage within the

United States that ultimately discharges into the

Atlantic Ocean, whose point of discharge is located

within and between New York and Virginia, and the

Richelieu River, a tributary of the St. Lawrence River.

03 South Atlantic-Gulf Region - The drainage that

ultimately discharges into the Atlantic Ocean, whose

point of discharge is located within and between North

Carolina and Florida; and the Gulf of Mexico, whose

point of discharge is located within and between

Florida and Mississippi, including the Pearl River.

Mississippi River above the mouth of the Ohio River,

excluding drainage of the Missouri River above a point

immediately below the mouth of the Gasconade River.

08 Lower Mississippi River - The drainage of the

Mississippi River below the mouth of the Ohio River,

but excluding the drainage of the Arkansas, White, and

Red Rivers and above the points of highest backwater

affects of the Mississippi River in those parts; and the

coastal streams, other than the Mississippi River, that

discharge into the Gulf of Mexico from the boundaries

of, but excluding the Pearl and Sabine Rivers.

09 Souris-Red-Rainy Region - The drainage within the

United States of the Souris, Red, and Rainy Rivers.

10 Missouri Region - The drainage within the United

States of the Missouri River above a point immediately

below the mouth of the Gasconade River and the

Saskatchewan River.

11 Arkansas-White-Red Region - The drainage of the

Arkansas River above the point of highest backwater

affect of the Mississippi River, the Red River above

the point of highest backwater affect of the Mississippi

River, and the White River above the point of highest

backwater affect of the Mississippi River near Peach

Orchard Bluff, AR.

2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE GENERAL EXPLANATION XI

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

13 Rio Grande Region - The drainage within the

United States of the Rio Grande; the San Luis Valley,

North Plains, San Augustine Plains, Mimbres, Estancia

Jonado del Muerto, Tularosa, Salt, and various smaller

closed basins; and the Lower Rio Grande Valley.

14 Upper Colorado Region - The drainage of the

Colorado River above the Lee Ferry Compact Point,

which is about 1 mile below the mouth of the Paria

River; and the Great Divide closed basin.

15 Lower Colorado Region - The drainage within the

United States of the Colorado River below the Lee

Ferry Compact Point, which is about 1 mile below the

mouth of the Paria River; the Rios Yaqui, Magdelena,

Sonoita, and other lesser streams that ultimatly

discharge into the Gulf of California; and the Animas

Valley, Wilcox Playa, El Dorado Valley, and other

smaller closed basins.

16 Great Basin Region - The drainage of the Great

Basin that ultimately discharges into Utah and Nevada.

17 Pacific-Northwest Region - The drainage within the

United States that ultimately discharges into the Straits

of Georgia and Juan de Fuca and the Pacific Ocean.

The point of discharge is within Washington and

Oregon, including the Columbia river.

18 California Region - The drainage within the United

States that ultimately discharges into the Pacific

Ocean, whose point of discharge is within California,

which includes the Central Valley; and that portion of

the Great Basin and other closed basins in California.

19 Alaska - entire State.

20 Hawaii - entire State.

Acre-Feet of Water - An acre-foot of water is the

quantity of water required to cover 1 acre to a depth of

1 foot. This is equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet or

325,851 gallons.

Acres and quantity harvested - If two or more crops

were harvested from the same land during the year, the

acres were counted for each crop. Therefore, the total

acres of all crops harvested generally exceeds the acres

of harvested cropland. Exceptions to this procedure

are hay crops. When more than one cutting of hay was

taken from the same acres, the acres were counted only

once, but the quantity harvested included hay from all

cuttings.

For interplanted crops or ‘‘skip-row’’ crops, acres were

reported according to the portion of the field occupied

by each crop. If a crop was interplanted in an orchard

or vineyard and harvested, then the entire orchard or

vineyard acreage was reported under the appropriate

fruit crop and the interplanted estimated crop acreage

was reported under the appropriate crop.

Acres of land in bearing and nonbearing orchards,

citrus or other groves, vineyards, and nut trees were

reported as harvested cropland regardless of whether

the crop was harvested or failed. Abandoned orchards

were reported as cropland idle, not harvested cropland.

Acres irrigated - Acres irrigated are the acres of

agricultural land to which water was artificially applied

by controlled means including preplanted, partial,

supplemental, and semi-irrigation. Land flooded

during high water periods was to be included as

irrigated only if the water was diverted to agricultural

land by dams, canals, or other works.

All other land - This category includes land in house

lots, barn lots, ponds, roads, ditches, wasteland, etc. It

includes those acres in the farm operation not classified

as cropland, pastureland, or woodland.

Average operating pressure - This is the pressure at

the well head.

Average pumping capacity - This category includes

the gallons per minute discharged from wells.

Chemigation - This is the process of applying

pesticides, fertilizers, other chemicals, or animal waste

through agricultural irrigation water. 

Cropland harvested - This category includes land

from which crops were harvested and hay was cut, and

land used to grow short-rotation woody crops, land in

orchards, citrus groves, Christmas trees, vineyards,

nurseries, and greenhouses. Land from which two or

more crops were harvested was counted only once.

Land in tapped maple trees was included in woodland
XII GENERAL EXPLANATION 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

not pastured. The 1997 census definition for harvested

cropland was the same as the 2002 definition. Shortrotation woody crops were not explicitly referenced in

the 1997 census definition, but were included as

“Other nursery and greenhouse crops.”

Cropland used only for pasture or grazing - This is

land used only for pasture or grazing that could have

been used for crops without additional improvement.

Also included are acres of crops hogged or grazed but

not harvested prior to grazing. However, cropland that

was pastured before or after crops were harvested was

to be included as harvested cropland rather than

cropland for pasture or grazing.

Crops unit of measurement - Respondents were

instructed to report crops in the units published.

Flowing or artesian wells- Flowing or artesian wells

are wells which flow freely and provide water used for

irrigation without pumping. All flowing or artesian

wells were excluded from pumping data on Tables 14

and 15. This should be taken into consideration when

using data from these two tables. The 1998 survey was

the first time the question was a respondent-reported

item. Past surveys subtracted the reported number of

pumped wells from the reported total wells used to

derive the number of artesian wells.

Institutional, research, experimental, and American

Indian reservation farms - Institutional, research,

and experimental farms were previously called

abnormal farms. In the 2002 census, these farms were

combined with Indian Reservation farms into one

category. However, in the 2003 survey American

Indian Reservations are included while the others are

excluded. Research farms include farms operated by

private companies as well as those operated by

universities, colleges, and government organizations

for the purpose of expanding agricultural knowledge.

Irrigated farms - Irrigated farms or ranches are those

with any agricultural land irrigated by any artificial or

controlled means in the specific calendar year. The

acreage irrigated may vary from a very small portion of

the total acreage in the farm or ranch to irrigation of all

agricultural land in the farm or ranch. Livestock

lagoon waste water distributed by sprinkler or flood

systems was also included.

Land in farms - The acreage designated as ‘‘land in

farms’’ consists primarily of agricultural land used for

crops, pasture, or grazing. It also includes woodland

and wasteland not actually under cultivation or used

for pasture or grazing, provided it was part of the farm

operator’s total operation. Large acreages of woodland

or wasteland held for nonagricultural purposes were

deleted from individual reports during the edit process.

Land in farms includes acres in the Conservation

Reserve and Wetlands Reserve Programs.

Land in farms is an operating unit concept and includes

land owned and operated as well as land rented from

others. Land used rent free was reported as land rented

from others. All grazing land, except land used under

government permits on a per-head basis, was included

as ‘‘land in farms’’ provided it was part of a farm or

ranch. Land under the exclusive use of a grazing

association was reported by the grazing association and

included as land in farms. All land in American Indian

reservations used for growing crops or grazing

livestock was included as land in farms. Land in

reservations not reported by individual American

Indians or non-Native Americans was reported in the

name of the cooperative group that used the land. In

many instances, an entire American Indian reservation

was reported as one farm.

Market value of agricultural products sold - The

market value of agricultural products sold represents

the gross market value before taxes and production

expenses of all agricultural products sold or removed

from the place in 2003 regardless of who received the

payment. It is equivalent to total sales. It includes

sales by the operator as well as the value of any shares

received by partners, landlords, contractors, or others

associated with the operation. The market value of

agricultural products sold represents the sum of all

crops, including nursery products, and livestock and

poultry and their products. It does not include income

from farm-related sources, such as custom work or

agricultural services, or income from nonfarm sources.

The 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey is the first

time sales data from the survey year has been collected.

In the previous surveys, these data were taken from the

previous census report forms of the irrigation survey

respondents. Therefore, the market value of sales did

not always match up to the commodities reported in the
2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE GENERAL EXPLANATION XIII

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

survey due to differing yields and prices and operation

changes from year to year.

North American Industry Classification System -

Beginning with the 1997 Census of Agriculture and the

1998 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey, farms were

classified by type of activity according to the North

American Industry Classification System, (NAICS).

Prior to 1997, the Standard Industrial Classification

System (SIC) was used. An establishment primarily

engaged in crop production (major group 111) or

production of livestock and animal specialties (major

group 112) is classified in the four-digit industry and

three-digit industry group which accounts for 50

percent or more of the total value of sales of its

agricultural products. If the total value of sales of

agricultural products of an establishment is less than

50 percent from a single four-digit industry, but 50

percent or more from the products of two or more fourdigit industries within the same three-digit industry

group, the establishment is classified in the

miscellaneous industry of that industry group.

Otherwise, it is classified as “All Other Crop Farming”

in industry 11199 or a general livestock farm in

industry 11299. 

Classifications of irrigated farms by selected NAICS

groupings are shown in Table 33. The NAICS codes

for the 2003 survey respondents were determined from

their 2002 census report.

Off-farm water supply - Off-farm water supply is

water from off-farm water suppliers, such as the U.S.

Bureau of Reclamation; irrigation districts; mutual,

private, cooperative, or neighborhood ditches;

commercial companies; or community water systems.

On-farm surface supply - On-farm surface supply is

water from a surface source not controlled by a water

supply organization. It includes sources such as

streams, drainage ditches, lakes, ponds, and reservoirs

on or adjacent to the operated land.

Other cropland - Other cropland includes cropland

not harvested and not grazed which was used for cover

crops or soil-improvement crops, land on which all

crops failed, land in cultivated summer fallow, idle

cropland, and land planted in crops that were to be

harvested after the survey year.

Other pastureland and rangeland - This land use

category is very inclusive and encompasses all grazable

land that does not qualify as cropland pasture. It may

be irrigated or dry land. In some areas, it can be a high

quality pasture that could not be cropped without

improvements. In other areas, it is barely able to be

grazed and is only marginally better than wasteland.

Sprinkler systems - Sprinkler irrigation is divided

into four areas to reflect current trends in irrigation.

The center pivot and mechanical-move methods have,

by definition, high-pressure delivery with water

delivered at 60 psi or more, medium pressure delivery

with water delivered at 30 to 59 psi, and low pressure

delivery with water delivered at less than 30 psi. The

mechanical-move systems are classified as either linear

move, side roll, wheel move, or big gun where the

sprinkler device is moved across the field either by

self-propelled methods or by tractor. Since all big guns

operate at high pressure, pressure was not asked.

Hand move systems include distribution systems laid

out in the spring and removed at the end of the season,

as well as other sprinkler systems which are moved

without mechanical assistance. Solid set and

permanent systems are sprinklers placed in the ground

permanently and used mostly for perennial crops.

Total cropland - This category includes cropland

harvested, cropland used only for pasture or grazing,

cropland idle or used for cover crops or soil

improvement but not harvested and not pastured or

grazed, cropland on which all crops failed or were

abandoned, and cropland in cultivated summer fallow.

Woodland - Woodland includes natural or planted

woodlots or timber tracts, cutover and deforested land

with young growth which has or will have value for

wood products and woodland pastured. Land covered

by sagebrush or mesquite was reported as other

pastureland and rangeland or other land. Land planted

for Christmas tree production and short rotation woody

crops was reported in cropland harvested and land in

tapped maple trees was reported as woodland not

pastured.

STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY

Target Population

The target population for the survey was composed of

all farms irrigating in the reference year 2003,

excluding horticultural specialty farms and

institutional, research, or experimental farms. To

obtain measurement for this target population, the

frame population was constructed to include all farms

that reported irrigated acres in the 2002 Census of

Agriculture except for farms that reported horticultural

crop sales of at least $10,000 and all institutional,

research, and experimental farms. The farms in the

excluded categories represented 11 percent of the total

number of irrigators and 2 percent of the irrigated land

reported in the 2002 census.

Undercoverage existed in the frame population to the

extent that there were farms that either erroneously

reported not irrigating in the 2002 census, started

irrigating in 2003, or had succeeding irrigators in 2003

(i.e., an operator who, since 2002, took over control of

an irrigating farm through sales, rental, or other

arrangements). Overcoverage existed in the frame

because some operations were misclassified as

irrigators and did not irrigate in 2002 or had either

stopped farming or irrigating in 2003. Farms in these

groups that were selected into the sample were

identified during the survey and estimates of their

number and acres irrigated are provided. Table B

provides the farm count and acres irrigated by State for

both the survey frame population and the 2002 census.

Sample Design

Sampling frames were created at the State level and

consisted of the farm operations reported in that State

in the 2002 census that satisfied the frame definition

stated above. The survey estimates were based on a

probability sample of farms from each State frame.

The sample design consisted of a stratified systematic

sample selected independently from each of the 50

State frames. All farms in a sampling frame were

stratified on the basis of total irrigated acres reported in

the 2002 census. The stratification boundaries varied

among the States and were dependent on the

distribution of total acres irrigated variable within the

State. A certainty stratum, whose farms were selected

with probability one, was included in each State so that

the major irrigators in each State were included.

The State sample sizes necessary to obtain the desired

level of precision were determined by analyzing the

variation of the total acres irrigated variable in each

State’s sampling frame. These sample sizes were

adjusted using historical nonresponse data to the

survey. The total national sample size was 25,014

farms; 1,823 of these farms were selected from the

certainty strata and the remaining 23,191 farms were

systematically selected from the noncertainty strata.

Table B provides the State sample sizes.

Survey Error

The statistics in this report are estimates derived from

a sample survey. There are two types of errors possible

in an estimate-based sample survey: sampling and

nonsampling. Sampling error is the error caused by

observing only a sample instead of the entire

population. The sampling error is subject to sampleto-sample variation. Nonsampling errors include all

other errors and can arise from many different sources.

These sources may include respondent or enumerator

error or incorrect data keying, editing, or imputing for

missing data. Nonsampling error due to mail list

incompleteness and duplication, as well as

misclassification of records on the mail list, is referred

to as coverage error. 

Measures of Precision

The survey sample was one of a large number of

possible samples of the same size that could have been

selected using the same sample design. Survey

estimates derived from the different samples will differ

from each other.

The relative standard error is used as an indicator of

the precision in the survey estimates and is reported for

major survey items in Table C. The relative standard

error expresses the standard error of an estimate as a

percent of the estimated value. The standard error of

a survey estimate is a measure of the variation among

the estimates from all possible samples. It is a measure

of the precision with which an estimate from a

particular sample approximates the average result of all

possible samples.

2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE GENERAL EXPLANATION XVII

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

The relative standard errors given in Table C can be

used to construct confidence intervals for the major

survey items. Confidence intervals are another way to

express the precision of an estimate by calculating the

upper and lower bounds for a level of confidence. This

confidence interval is designed to contain the true

value being estimated. If all possible samples were

selected, each of the samples were surveyed under

essentially the same conditions, and an estimate and its

standard error were calculated from each sample, then:

1. Approximately 67 percent of the intervals from

one standard error below the estimate to one

standard error above the estimate would include

the average value of all possible samples.

2. Approximately 90 percent of the intervals from

1.65 standard errors below the estimate to 1.65

standard errors above the estimate would include

the average value of all possible samples.

The computations necessary to construct the

confidence intervals associated with these statements

are illustrated in the following example: Assume that

the estimated number of irrigated acres of a certain

item is 669,813 and the relative standard error of the

estimate is 1.6 percent (0.016). Multiplying 669,813

by 0.016 yields 10,717, the standard error. Therefore,

a 67 percent confidence interval is 659,096 to 680,530

(i.e., 669,813 + 10,717). Similarly, a 90 percent

confidence interval is 652,130 to 687,496 (i.e., 669,813

+ 1.65 x 10,717).

Estimation

Estimates were produced for the Nation as a whole, for

each of the 50 States, and for the geographic domains

known as Water Resources Areas (WRA). The

estimation methodology accounted for both selection

of the survey sample and survey nonresponse. The

estimator for the State totals was a direct expansion

reweighted estimator. The expansion factor was the

inverse of the selection probability for the sample

farms in a stratum. This expansion factor was

reweighted at the stratum level to account for wholefarm nonresponse. The nonresponse adjustment factor

used to reweight the expansion factor was the ratio of

the number of sample farms in a stratum to the number

of sample farms that responded to the survey in that

stratum. The assumption underlying this weighting

approach to survey nonresponse was that survey

respondents and nonrespondents within a stratum

constitute a homogeneous population, thus allowing

respondents to represent nonrespondents. The

reweighted expansion factor is the product of these two

factors and is equal to the ratio of the total number of

farms in the stratum to the total number of sample

farms that responded to the survey in that stratum. An

expanded data value for a sample record was obtained

by multiplying the data value by the reweighted

expansion factor. State totals for a characteristic were

estimated by summing the expanded data values from

all responding sample records across all strata within

the State. National estimates were obtained by

summing across all States. The WRA estimates were

obtained by summing the expanded data values for the

portion of the sample falling into the WRA.

EDITING

Reported data that were obviously incorrect due to

misinterpretation of a question were either corrected or

deleted prior to the computer edit. In some cases,

respondents may have failed to provide all of the

information requested, only indicating the presence of

an item but not the amount. Imputations were made

QUALIFICATIONS OF THE DATA

Analysts reviewing the returned report forms and

results of the computer edit detected a few inquiries

that were not uniformly interpreted by all respondents.

Data users should be aware that respondent

interpretation of some questions may affect the final

results in their use of these selected statistics.

Clarification of data items with potential extortions and

data impacted by unique problems or definitions are

provided below.

Irrigated land - Irrigated land is defined as “all land

watered by artificial or controlled means.” No attempt

has been made to define the degree or intensity of

irrigation. Therefore, the figures for irrigated land
XVIII GENERAL EXPLANATION 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

include land with as little as one inch of water applied

as well as land having several feet of water applied.

Nonirrigated crop yields - Data users are reminded

that the nonirrigated crop yield averages in Table 27

are for nonirrigated crops harvested from farms having

land irrigated and may not be comparable with crop

yield averages for total farms in the State. Yields for

sweet corn, tomatoes, and lettuce were asked for the

first time in 2003. However, many respondents left

yields blank which required a large amount of

imputation and the yields that were reported for these

crops covered an extremely large range indicating

respondents did not always use the hundredweight unit

requested on the form. Therefore it was decided that

these three vegetable yields would not be published.

Estimated quantity of water applied - Most water

used for irrigation is not metered or measured

accurately. The quantity of water data are on the basis

of best estimates provided by irrigators. Generally, in

areas of water scarcity such as southern California and

Arizona, irrigators are more likely to be able to provide

actual quantities of water used than in Mountain States

such as Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho where scarcity

of water is less of a problem. In the Mountain States

where water from snow-melt is diverted for use in

season, the amount of water used may be a rough

estimate, seldom a measured figure.

Farms using off-farm water - In 2003, respondents

were asked to report the amount (none, some, all, or

unknown) of off-farm water supplied by the U.S.

Bureau of Reclamation, other federal agencies, and all

other suppliers. However, many respondents did not

answer this question. No imputation was used to

determine an amount by source. Instead, the edit set

the entry to unknown. The number using water from

U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, other federal agencies,

and all other suppliers may be understated.

Average hours of operation - The total hours a well

pump operated was collected for each of the first three

wells reported. For the remaining number of well

pumps, respondents were asked to report the average

hours the pumps operated. Some data collected in this

entry exceeded 8,760 hours, the maximum number of

hours in a year, meaning that some respondents had

entered their total pump operating hours rather than the

average hours used. Records exceeding the 8,760 hour

threshold were edited, but other records may have been

tabulated with inflated operating hours.

Application of commercial fertilizers or pesticides

in irrigation water - This inquiry was intended to

measure the number of farms and acres on which

fertilizer and pesticides were distributed through

irrigation systems. The question was redesigned in

2003 to avoid the overstated farm count and acres

thought to have occurred in 1998 because respondents

misinterpreted the inquiry to include conventional

application of fertilizer and pesticides to the irrigated

crop as well. Review of the 2003 data suggests that

farmers may have missed the question on the report

form and left it blank. Therefore, farms and acres may

be understated in 2003.

Cost of water received from off-farm water

suppliers - Irrigators receiving water from off-farm

water suppliers are generally required to pay for the

water in charges, fees, or assessment. The computer

edit procedures called for imputing an estimate for cost

of water based on other reports from the same

geographic area. The final tabulated results for this

item may be overstated because it was not possible to

distinguish cases where the respondent received free

water from cases where the cost amount was omitted

in error, leading to imputation of a dollar amount.

States with small sample sizes, mostly in the

Northeast, reported a wide range for the cost of water

with data skewed to the high end which may be due to

the use of expensive municipal water on small acres.

Irrigation wells - The question was intended to

capture only those wells used for irrigation purposes.

However, some farm operators reported wells used for

domestic purposes or livestock as well. When such

errors were identified, these entries were deleted.

Artesian wells - A specific entry space was provided

for artesian wells. The data for well pumps exclude

any pumps that may have actually been used to pump

water from artesian wells.

Irrigation pumps - The inventory figures for number

of irrigation pumps reported in Table 16 include

reserve pumps not actually used in 2003, but exclude

any pumps on wells not used in 2003. By definition,
2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE GENERAL EXPLANATION XIX

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

flowing or artesian wells do not have well pumps.

Expenditures for maintenance and repair and

investment in irrigation facilities and equipment -

The data reported are for expenditures that occurred

only in 2003. Some respondents found it difficult to

separate expenditures for maintenance and repairs from

investment in irrigation facilities and equipment as

defined on the report form. For example, replacement

of worn-out sprinkler nozzles, pumps, and motors

could be considered as either repair cost or investment

in new equipment. Data users are reminded that the

distinction between the two expenditure categories was

left up to the respondent.

Government programs - This item shows the effect

of government programs on irrigation practices. 

Improvements to irrigation systems that reduce

energy and/or conserve water used in irrigation -

This item shows the benefits of new resourceconserving irrigation systems. Respondents were

asked to respond for the period covering 1998 to 2003.

The information was tabulated as reported. No

imputation was made for a blank response.

Sources of irrigation information - This question

identifies where farmers look for help in making

irrigation decisions. The information for this item was

tabulated as reported. No imputation was made for a

blank response.

Reason for discontinuance of irrigation since 2002 -

The data shown in Table 42 reflect the expansion of

reported entries. Some respondents reported multiple

reasons, while others gave no specific reason.

SUMMARY

Irrigated Crops

Compared with 1998, the number of farms and ranches

irrigating fell 2 percent to 220,163 in 2003, and total

land irrigated was down 3 percent to 52.6 million

acres. The leading States in total acreage of irrigated

land in 2003 were California (16 percent of U.S. total),

Nebraska (14 percent), and Texas(9 percent). Table D

shows the top twenty states from the 2002 census and

their previous census acres irrigated and rank.

Corn for grain or seed continues to be the dominant

irrigated crop accounting for nearly 19 percent of

irrigated land. The top irrigated crops in the United

States in 2003 were corn for grain or seed, alfalfa hay,

soybeans, land in orchards, and cotton. These crops

accounted for 56 percent of all irrigated land. Irrigated

pastureland accounted for 3.63 million acres in 2003,

down 8 percent from 1998. 

Estimated Quantity of Water Applied

The total quantity of water applied in 2003 was down

11 percent from 1998. Nationally, irrigators estimated

a total of 86.9 million acre-feet of water was applied to

the 52.6 million acres irrigated in 2003 for an average

of 1.7 acre-feet per acre irrigated. Table E shows the

average acre-feet of water applied per irrigated acre in

the U.S. over the last 29 years. The average amount of

water applied per acre in 2003 ranged from a high of

5.6 acre-feet in Massachusetts, to a low of 0.4 acre-feet

in several States.

Method of Irrigation 

In 2003, farmers and ranchers irrigated 52.6 million

acres by different water distribution systems. Of the

total acres irrigated, 26.9 million acres were irrigated

by sprinkler systems and 23.1 million acres by gravity

flow systems. For the first time, the Farm and Ranch

Irrigation Survey shows more acres irrigated with

sprinkler systems than gravity flow systems.

Sprinkler systems were used on 51 percent of the total

land irrigated in 2003 compared with 46 percent in

1998, 46 percent in 1994, and 40 percent in 1988.

Gravity flow systems were used on 43 percent of the

land in 2003, compared with 50 percent in 1998, 50

percent in 1994, and 59 percent in 1988. Table F

shows acres irrigated by method in 2003 and 1998.

Source of Water

Of the 52.6 million acres irrigated by water from all

sources in 2003, about 32.3 million acres (61 percent)

were irrigated from farm irrigation wells, 7.28 million

acres (13 percent) from on-farm surface sources, and

13.9 million acres (26 percent) from off-farm water

suppliers. Of the 86.9 million acre-feet of water

estimated to be used for irrigation in 2003, 43.5 million

were pumped from wells, 11.8 million were provided

by on-farm surface sources, and 31.6 million came

from off-farm water suppliers. Table G shows how

these data correspond to previous farm and ranch

irrigation surveys.

The average amount of water applied per acre varies

significantly by source. Land irrigated from wells only

averaged 1.2 acre-feet per acre, while land irrigated

from off-farm water suppliers averaged 2.3 acre-feet

per acre. Sprinkler irrigation is more closely related to

the distribution of well water, while gravity flow

systems are generally used to distribute water from offfarm water suppliers.

Irrigation Wells

There were 401,193 irrigation wells capable of being

used on 104,776 farms. Of these, 375,851 wells were

actually pumped in 2003 and 3,823 were artesian or

free flowing. All irrigation wells supplied 43.5 million

acre-feet of water to 32.3 million acres of land,

averaging 1.35 acre-feet of water applied and 85.2

acresirrigated per well. Farms with wells used in 2003

averaged 3.6 wells per farm. Nearly 66 percent of the

farms using wells in 2003 used one or two wells.

However, the majority of wells used, 229,626, were on

the18,618 farms using more than five wells, indicating

the impact of the large irrigators. Pumped wells for the

United States averaged 238 feet in well depth, 158 feet

in pumping depth, 819 gallons per minute in pumping

capacity, and 1,039 hours in operation.

Irrigation Expenditures

Pumping costs - There were 497,443 irrigation pumps

of all kinds used on 153,117 farms in 2003 irrigating

42.9 million acres ofland. These pumps were powered

by fuels and electricity costing irrigators a total of

$1.55 billion or an average of $10,135 per farm. The

principal energy source used was electricity, for which

$953 million was spent to power 319,102 pumps that

irrigated 24.1 million acres at an average cost of

$39.50 per acre. Solar energy was reported as the

source for pumping wells on 360 farms irrigating

16,430 acres.

Cost of water from off-farm water suppliers - The

31.6 million acre-feet of water received from off-farm

water suppliers to irrigate 13.9 million acres cost

irrigators $579 million, for an average cost of $18.29

per acre-foot of water or $41.73 per acre irrigated.

There were 20,349 farms receiving off-farm water at

no cost.

Maintenance and repair cost - Expenditures for

maintenance and repairs totaled $492 million on

119,952 farms, for an average of $4,099 per farm.

Expenses for hired and contract labor - In 2003,

62,260 farms paid $658 million forlabor, an average of

$10,559 per farm or $24.13 per acre. Nearly 90

percent of the wages were paid to hired laborers.

Investment in irrigation equipment, facilities, and

land improvement - Investments totaled $1.13 billion

for an average of $13,056 per farm in 2003. The
XXII GENERAL EXPLANATION 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

principal investment was the purchase of irrigation

equipment and machinery which totaled $817 million

and represents 73 percent of total investments.

Discontinuance of Irrigation in 2003 

An estimated 32,489 farmers who irrigated a total of

1.85 million acres in 2002, according to the 2002

census, did not irrigate in 2003. The majority, 91

percent, of these operators reported that their

discontinuance was not permanent.

Improvements to Irrigation Systems

Approximately 26.4 million acres irrigated were

reported to have had improvements made on them to

reduce energy use or conserve water since 1998. These

improvements resulted in reduced water requirements

on 18.5 million acres irrigated, improved crop yield on

18.7 million acres irrigated, and decreased energy costs

on 15.3 million acres irrigated.
