Water use and irrigation shifts reshape Texas agriculture
Reliable estimates show 56 percent of crop value comes from irrigated land while only 25 percent of cropland is irrigated. By 1965, 65 percent of irrigation was on the High Plains with 120 major reservoirs by 1963 and more under construction. The Water Development Board faces a statewide plan to balance uneven water distribution and meet national needs.
