Ground Water Resources Compared to Rainfall Totals
Ground water, once accessed by dug wells and simple pumps, has grown into a major resource. Dr. Edgar S. Bagley notes advances in drilling increase knowledge and use of underground water, with Kansas possibly containing 200 million acre-feet. By 1963 water rights total about 3.5 million acre-feet annually, over half for irrigation, yet overdraft concerns persist. Recharge is uncertain, water tables in parts of Kansas have fallen, and long term sustainability hinges on improved management and conservation.
