Ponds multiply nationwide as farmers build vast water bodies
Farmers and ranchers construct one to two acre ponds at about 75,000 yearly, with roughly 114 million built in 15 to 20 years. Ponds aid water conservation, livestock and wildlife habitat, erosion control, irrigation, and recreation. ACP paid 14.335 million in 1955 for new ponds and repairs, while Soil Conservation Service aided in 78,800 ponds last year and claims 750,000 total aided.
