Irrigation Efficiency Improvement Projects: Agricultural Production, Water Conservation, and Water Quality
Jackson Soil and Water Conservation District strives to improve agricultural production efficiency, while improving water quality and the overall quantity of our water resources throughout the county. Irrigation efficiency projects offer the potential to provide more water for agricultural production, as well as environmental uses in some cases, while reducing contamination.
In an effort to better track how "wild" flood irrigation impacts water quality, specifically E. coli and temperature loading, JSWCD monitored five irrigation efficiency improvement projects from 2009 to 2016. Open or download the PDF below to read a summary of these case studies.
