Irrigation Tests in California by U S Department Study
The U S Department of Agriculture and California partners report on irrigation methods and pumping costs. Tests measure fuel cost to raise water, evaporation losses, and effectiveness of surface flooding versus furrow methods. Results show costs from 90 cents to $3.60 per acre foot and varied evaporation by location and temperature with June to August peaks.
