2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Introduction
HISTORY
Selected irrigation data for on-farm irrigation
operations have been collected in the census of
agriculture since 1890. A census of farms which
reported irrigation in the 1900 Census of Agriculture
was authorized by Congress. Surveys of irrigation in
humid areas were taken in connection with the 1954
and 1959 censuses.
The 2008 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey (FRIS)
is the seventh survey devoted entirely to collecting
on-farm irrigation data for the United States. For the
first time, horticultural specialty operations with
sales of $10,000 or greater were included in the
survey. The 1979, 1984, 1988, and 1994 Farm and
Ranch Irrigation Surveys were conducted by the U.S.
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Census.
Responsibility for the survey was transferred from
the Bureau of Census to the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA), National Agricultural Statistics
Service (NASS) in 1997. The 1998 survey utilized
the resources of the 45 NASS field offices which
expanded opportunities for telephone follow-up or
personal enumeration of nonresponse cases. The
1998 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey was the first
survey to collect and publish data for each of the 50
States. Previous farm and ranch irrigation surveys
published data only for leading irrigation States, with
a U.S. total, excluding Alaska and Hawaii.
USES OF SURVEY DATA
The 2008 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey
provides data that supplement the basic irrigation
data collected from all farm and ranch operators in
the 2007 Census of Agriculture. Irrigation data from
this survey combined with 2007 census data provide
one of the most complete and detailed profiles of
irrigation in the United States.
Survey
data
are
used
by
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
producers,
farm
organizations, businesses, State departments of
agriculture, elected representatives and legislative
bodies at all levels of government, public and private
sector analysts, the news media, and colleges and
universities. The data are used to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Compare water use by application method;
Develop improved technologies;
Develop Federal programs;
Appraise water use trends;
Assess impact of congressional legislation; and
Evaluate the impact of irrigated crops by State.
AUTHORITY
The census of agriculture is required by law under
the “Census of Agriculture Act of 1997," Public Law
105-113 (Title 7, United States Code, Section
2204g).
The law authorizes the Secretary of
Agriculture to conduct surveys deemed necessary to
furnish annual or other data on the subjects covered
by the census. The 2008 Farm and Ranch Irrigation
Survey was conducted under the provisions of this
section.
FARM DEFINITION
A farm is any place from which $1,000 or more of
agricultural products were produced and sold, or
normally would have been sold, during the census or
survey year.
DATA COMPARABILITY
State level general FRIS data are not comparable
between the 2008 and 2003 surveys. In the 2003
survey, the data included operations that reported
horticultural production with sales less than $10,000
during the previous census year. In 2008 data for
these operations are included with data for
horticultural specialty operations that reported
$10,000 or more of horticulture sales in the previous
INTRODUCTION V
census year in a separate set of data tables.
To provide a measure of comparability, the
published 2003 U.S. level data were adjusted. Data
for operations that reported horticultural production
with sales less than $10,000 were removed. See
Appendix A, Statistical Methodology for a detailed
discussion of data comparability.
WATER RESOURCES REGIONS MAP
The map on page 1 shows Water Resources Regions
delineated to approximate actual basin boundaries
based on topographic drainage characteristics. Data
are tabulated separately for each of the 20 Water
Resources Regions shown on the map.
PERCENT OF NORMAL PRECIPITATION
MAP
The map on page 2 shows the areas of the United
States with deviations from normal precipitation
during 2008. The map is included for reference
purposes only.
TABLES AND APPENDICES
Chapter 1, General Data. Table 1 shows farms and
acres irrigated for the 1992 through 2007 Censuses
of Agriculture for each State. Tables 2 through 42
present detailed irrigation data collected in the farm
and ranch irrigation survey from operations that
reported irrigated land in the 2007 census and also in
the 2008 survey. Excluded from these data are
institutional, research, and experimental operations
and all operations reporting horticultural sales in the
previous census year. Table 43 presents data for
farm operations that irrigated in 2007 but
discontinued irrigation either temporarily or
permanently in 2008 while continuing to operate a
farm or ranch. Comparable adjusted 2003 U.S. level
survey data are also presented. Data are reported at
the national level, for each State, and for the 20
Water Resources Regions.
Chapter 2, Horticultural Operations Data. Tables
1 through 9 present detailed 2008 irrigation data
VI INTRODUCTION
collected on the horticulture version of the irrigation
survey. Data are from horticultural operations that
reported irrigating in the 2007 census and also in the
2008 survey. Data are reported at the national level
and for each State.
Appendix A. Provides information about data
collection and data processing activities and
discusses the statistical methodology used in
conducting and evaluating the survey. Table A
provides the general 2008 FRIS sample counts and
the sample’s corresponding 2007 census irrigated
acreage. It also provides the general 2008 FRIS
unexpanded and expanded acres irrigated and 2007
census acres irrigated. Table B provides a
comparison of the irrigated acres published in the
2007 Census of Agriculture and expanded 2008
FRIS acres irrigated by size group. Table C provides
the standard error for selected data in the 2008
general FRIS sample. Table D provides the standard
error for selected data in the 2008 horticultural
operations sample.
Appendix B.
Provides information about the
development of the report forms and definitions of
specific terms and phrases used in this publication,
including items in the publication tables that carry
the note “see text.” It also provides facsimiles of the
report forms and instruction sheets used to collect
general FRIS data. Table A provides irrigated
acreage and rank for the previous three censuses.
Table B combines the quantity of water applied
published in Chapter 1, general FRIS, and the
quantity of water applied for horticultural operations
data, Chapter 2.
RESPONDENT CONFIDENTIALITY
In keeping with the provisions of Title 7 of the
United States Code, no data are published that would
disclose information about the operations of an
individual farm or ranch. All tabulated data are
subjected to an extensive disclosure review prior to
publication. Any tabulated item that identifies data
reported by a respondent or allows a respondent’s
data to be accurately estimated or derived, was
suppressed and coded with a ‘D’. However, the
number of farms reporting an item is not considered
confidential information and is provided even though
other information is withheld.

Appendix A.
Statistical Methodology
THE SURVEY POPULATION
Sample Design
The target population for the 2008 Farm and Ranch
Irrigation Survey (FRIS) was composed of all farms
irrigating in the reference year 2008. From the 2007
Census of Agriculture, 217,604 records were
identified for the U.S. level FRIS population on the
basis of having irrigation activity on their farm or
ranch. This excluded 1,063 institutional, research, or
experimental farms from the total number of
irrigators that reported in the 2007 census.
The population was divided into two groups. The
first group consisted of all 32,568 operations that
reported any sales of irrigated horticultural
commodities. The remaining 185,036 operations
comprised the general FRIS group. Each record in
both sub-groups was assigned to a specific strata
based on acres or area irrigated.
For the general FRIS sample, a State level sample
was drawn for all 50 States. This sample design
targeted a U.S. level sample size of 25,000. A
certainty stratum, with farms selected with
probability one, was included in each State to ensure
that the major irrigators in each State were sampled.
The remaining strata were sampled systematically by
acreage. The stratification boundaries varied among
the States and were dependent on the distribution of
total acres irrigated within the State. A final sample
of 23,089 operations was selected. The stratified
design ensured that the sample was reflective of the
general FRIS sub-population and achieved the
appropriate coefficients of variation (CV) levels at
both the U.S. and State levels. The stratified design
also incorporated an allowance for the expected
national response rate of 70 percent.
The horticulture sample was also drawn from a
stratified design in all 50 States. The stratified design
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
targeted a U.S. level sample size of 10,000. There
were two certainty strata, with farms selected with
probability one, included in each State to ensure that
the major irrigators with horticultural activity in each
State were sampled. The remaining strata were
sampled systematically by acreage. The stratification
boundaries were consistent across all States and were
dependent on the distribution of horticulture irrigated
within the State. A final sample of 9,996 operations
was selected. The design ensured that the
horticulture sample was reflective of the general
horticulture population.
The final national sample size was 33,085 farms;
2,738 of these farms were selected from the certainty
strata and the remaining 30,347 farms were
systematically selected from the noncertainty strata.
Table A provides the State sample counts for the
general FRIS, including acres associated with those
counts, final reports processed and tabulated both
unexpanded and expanded, and 2007 census counts.
DATA COLLECTION
Method of Enumeration
The 2008 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey was
conducted primarily by mail. It was supplemented
with Electronic Data Reporting (EDR) via the
Internet, telephone calls, and personal enumeration.
With the exception of EDR, enumeration methods
used in the 2008 survey were similar to those used in
the 2003 survey.
Report Forms
Two report forms were developed. A 16-page 2008
Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey report form was
designed to collect data from irrigated farm and
ranch operations. Its design was similar to the form
used in the 2003 survey with the addition of one new
APPENDIX A A-1
section. See Appendix B for changes. The 8-page
2008 Horticultural Irrigation Survey report form is
new. It was designed to collect data from operations
with horticulture that irrigated. This report form can
be found in Appendix B.
Report Form
Follow-up
Mailings
and
Respondent
The initial mailout took place in January 2009. Mail
packets were mailed to approximately 23,100 farm
and ranch operations and 10,000 horticultural
operations. The initial mail packets included a
labeled report form, an instruction sheet, a letter
requesting a prompt response, and a return envelope.
Mailout packet preparation, initial mailout, and one
follow-up mailing to nonrespondents were handled
by the Census Bureau’s National Processing Center
(NPC) in Jeffersonville, IN. Telephone follow-up
from a NASS Data Collection Center began April
2009 to nonrespondents who were mailed a report
form from NPC.
Data were collected for a select group of operations
by the NASS field offices. To minimize the number
of agency contacts, operations were included in this
group if they were scheduled for contact by NASS
for other agricultural surveys. Report forms were
labeled at NPC and sent to the field offices in
January. Field office staff collected data by personal
enumeration or by phone from January 2009 through
May 2009. For a description of the adjustment for
nonresponse, see Estimation.
REPORT FORM PROCESSING
Data Capture
All report forms returned to NPC were immediately
checked in, using bar codes printed on the mailing
label, and this check-in process removed it from
follow-up mailings. All forms were reviewed prior to
data keying to identify inconsistencies and ensure
that the data could be keyed. Major inconsistencies,
respondent remarks, blank report forms, and large
irrigation cases were reviewed by analysts and
adjusted prior to data keying as needed. All forms
with any data were scanned and an image was
created for each page of a report form.
A-2 APPENDIX A
Data Editing and Analysis
Data from each report form were processed through
a computer edit which flagged inconsistent entries.
Each flagged entry was reviewed by staff. Reported
data that were obviously incorrect due to
misinterpretation of a question were either corrected
or deleted prior to the computer edit. In some cases,
respondents may have failed to provide all of the
information requested, only indicating the presence
of an item but not the amount. For those data that
would not be machine imputed they were estimated
by the analyst based on other responses in the
geographic area and by similarly sized farms. After
the initial edit, an imputation program supplied
missing data and made adjustments based on
responses of similarly sized farms within the same
geographic area. Data entries of large magnitude
and data items that were changed significantly in the
computer edit process were reviewed and verified by
analysts.
Prior to publication, tabulated totals were reviewed
to identify and resolve remaining inconsistencies and
potential coverage problems. Comparisons were
made to 2007 census data, 2003 Farm and Ranch
Irrigation Survey data, and other available check
data. The data were processed through a disclosure
program to prevent data from being published that
could be sourced back to an individual operation.
Imputation
After the initial edit, imputations were made for
missing data on individual crop yields and quantity
of water used, maintenance and repair costs,
expenditures, cost of water received from off-farm
water suppliers, well and pump characteristics,
energy cost of well pumps, area of horticulture
crops, horticulture water sources, and value of sales.
ESTIMATION
Estimates were produced for the Nation as a whole,
for each of the 50 States, and for the geographic
domains known as Water Resources Regions (WRR)
(see Appendix B for detailed description). The
estimation methodology consisted of two weighting
components that made up the total FRIS weight.
The first component was the fully adjusted weight
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
pulled in from the 2007 Census of Agriculture. This
weight accounted for any list incompleteness and
undercoverage from the 2007 census. The second
component was the sampling rate used for the FRIS.
This expansion factor was the inverse of the
selection probability for the sample farms in a
stratum. This expansion factor was reweighted at the
stratum level to account for whole-farm
nonresponse. The nonresponse adjustment factor
used to reweight the expansion factor was the ratio
of the number of sample farms in a stratum to the
number of sample farms that responded to the survey
in that stratum. The assumption underlying this
weighting approach to survey nonresponse was that
survey respondents and nonrespondents within a
stratum constitute a homogeneous population, thus
allowing respondents to represent nonrespondents.
An expanded data value for a sample record was
obtained by multiplying the data value by the total
FRIS weight. State totals for a characteristic were
estimated by summing the expanded data values
from all responding sample records across all strata
within the State. National estimates were obtained
by summing across all States. The WRR estimates
were obtained by summing the expanded data values
for the portion of the sample falling into the WRR.
$10,000 during the previous census year. In 2008
data for these operations are included in a separate
set of horticultural data tables. To provide a measure
of comparability, published 2003 U.S. level data
were adjusted by removing operations that reported
horticultural production with sales less than $10,000.
Differences exist between the expanded results of the
2008 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey and
published data from the 2007 Census of Agriculture.
Some of these are as follows:
1.
The survey includes data only for operations
that irrigated in both 2007 and 2008.
Operations in some areas, especially the
eastern States, irrigate intermittently according
to moisture needs. Operations with irrigation
capabilities may not irrigate depending on the
amount of rainfall for a particular year or
geographic area. The number of operations
that irrigated in 2007 but discontinued
irrigation in 2008 is tabulated in Table 43 by
reason of discontinuance.
2.
Some operators reported that they had been
misclassified as irrigators and did not irrigate
in either 2007 or 2008. An estimated 10,058
operations with 749,291 acres irrigated were
misclassified as irrigated in the 2007 Census of
Agriculture. This is estimated by expanding
reports in the farm and ranch irrigation survey
where the respondents reported that they did
not irrigate in 2008 or in 2007. In addition to
errors in processing census data, some
operators misreported or misinterpreted the
questions. Most of the operators misreporting
irrigation in the 2007 census reported irrigation
of small acreages of vegetables, fruits and nuts,
tobacco, field crops, or berries.
3.
Some respondents indicated they had retired,
moved, sold or rented the land, etc., since
2007. After analytical review of the 2008
receipts, an estimated 12,322 operations
accounting for 1,976,622 acres irrigated in
2007, after expansion, were dropped from
processing because they were no longer
farming. Special care was taken with large
operations to ensure that they were not
erroneously dropped due to reorganization or
RESPONDENT CONFIDENTIALITY
In keeping with the provisions of Title 7 of the
United States Code, no data are published that would
disclose information about the operations of an
individual farm or ranch. All tabulated data are
subjected to an extensive disclosure review prior to
publication. Any tabulated item that identifies data
reported by a respondent or allows a respondent’s
data to be accurately estimated or derived, was
suppressed and coded with a ‘D’. However, the
number of farms reporting an item is not considered
confidential information and is provided even though
other information is withheld.
DATA COMPARABILITY
The 2008 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey data
were weighted for incompleteness of the mail list.
The State level general FRIS data are not
comparable between the 2008 and 2003 surveys. In
the 2003 survey, the data included operations that
reported horticultural production with sales less than

than
discontinuing
New irrigators in 2008 (not included in the
2007 census) did not have a chance of being
selected in the sample and, therefore, were
excluded from the survey. It is believed that
the impact of new irrigators is probably
minimal. This conclusion is supported by
comparisons between the 2002 and 2007
Census of Agriculture irrigation data which
show little change in acres of irrigated cropland
harvested.
Table B shows acres irrigated in the 2008 general
FRIS (expanded) compared with U.S. totals from the
2007 Census of Agriculture. The expanded survey
accounts for 97.1 percent of all land reported as
irrigated in the 2007 census and all irrigation
characteristics associated with that land.
MEASURES OF SURVEY QUALITY
The statistics in this report are estimates derived
from a sample survey. There are two types of errors
possible in an estimate-based sample survey:
sampling and nonsampling. Sampling error is the
error caused by observing only a sample instead of
the entire population. The sampling error is subject
to sample-to-sample variation. Nonsampling errors
include all other errors and can arise from many
different sources.
These sources may include
respondent or enumerator error or incorrect data
keying, editing, or imputing for missing data.
Nonsampling error due to mail list incompleteness
and duplication, as well as misclassification of
records on the mail list, is referred to as coverage
error.
Undercoverage existed in the frame population to the
extent that there were farms that either erroneously
reported not irrigating in the 2007 census, started
irrigating in 2008, or had succeeding irrigators in
2008 (i.e., an operator who, since 2007, took over
control of an irrigating farm through sales, rental, or
other arrangements). Overcoverage existed in the
frame because some operations were misclassified as
irrigated and did not irrigate in 2007 or had either
stopped farming or irrigating in 2008. Farms in
these groups that were selected into the sample were
A-4 APPENDIX A
identified during the survey and estimates of their
number and acres irrigated are provided above under
Data Comparability, items 2 and 3.
MEASURES OF PRECISION
The survey sample was one of a large number of
possible samples of the same size that could have
been selected using the same sample design. Survey
estimates derived from the different samples will
differ from each other.
The relative standard error is used as an indicator of
the precision in the survey estimates and is reported
for major survey items in Table C and Table D. The
relative standard error expresses the standard error of
an estimate as a percent of the estimated value. The
standard error of a survey estimate is a measure of
the variation among the estimates from all possible
samples. It is a measure of the precision with which
an estimate from a particular sample approximates
the average result of all possible samples.
The relative standard errors given in Table C and
Table D can be used to construct confidence
intervals for the major survey items. Confidence
intervals are another way to express the precision of
an estimate by calculating the upper and lower
bounds for a level of confidence. This confidence
interval is designed to contain the true value being
estimated. If all possible samples were selected, each
of the samples were surveyed under essentially the
same conditions, and an estimate and its standard
error were calculated from each sample, then:
1.
Approximately 67 percent of the intervals from
one standard error below the estimate to one
standard error above the estimate would
include the average value of all possible
samples.
2.
Approximately 90 percent of the intervals from
1.65 standard errors below the estimate to 1.65
standard errors above the estimate would
include the average value of all possible
samples.
The computations necessary to construct the
confidence intervals associated with these statements
are illustrated in the following example: Assume that
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
the estimated number of irrigated acres of a certain
item is 669,813 and the relative standard error of the
estimate is 1.6 percent (0.016). Multiplying 669,813
by 0.016 yields 10,717, the standard error.
Therefore, a 67-percent confidence interval is
659,096 to 680,530 (i.e., 669,813 + 10,717). If
corresponding confidence intervals were constructed
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
for all possible samples of the same size and design,
approximately 2 out of 3 (67 percent) of these
intervals would contain the figure obtained from a
complete enumeration.
Similarly, a 90-percent
confidence interval is 652,130 to 687,496 (i.e.,
669,813 + 1.65 x 10,717).

Appendix B.
General Explanation and Report Form
DEVELOPMENT OF THE REPORT FORMS
Planning for the survey started in 2004 with the
closeout of the 2003 Farm and Ranch Irrigation
Survey
(FRIS).
Extensive
correspondence,
discussions, and meetings took place with
representatives of the Economic Research Service
(ERS) regarding 2008 survey content. Evaluations
from NASS staff of the 2003 survey were reviewed.
The decision was made to incorporate a separate
report form into the survey to collect irrigation data
from operations with any horticultural sales in the
previous census year. No significant changes were
recommended for the general FRIS report form.
Report form drafts were developed in headquarters.
NASS staff in selected field offices reviewed the
drafts and solicited input from various data users in
their respective States. Letters were sent to
individuals
in
water-related
government
organizations, industry, and academic positions to
solicit their comments on report form content and
design.
Pretesting was limited to the horticultural operations
report form since the general FRIS report form
remained mostly unchanged. Participating field
offices evaluated the results of their findings,
identified flaws discovered during the interview
process, and submitted recommendations to
headquarters. All responses were reviewed and
categorized to evaluate data collection feasibility and
priority needs. Results of the pretest lead to a
redesign of the horticultural operations report form.
DATA CHANGES
In 2008 the general FRIS tables exclude operations
that reported any horticulture sales in the previous
census year. In 2003 horticultural operations that
reported less than $10,000 in sales in the previous
census year were included in the 2003 FRIS
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
publication. For data comparability, operations that
reported any horticultural sales in the previous
census year were sampled and the data were
collected on a horticulture version of the FRIS report
form. Some report form changes affected some of
the general FRIS publication tables. A few tables
were affected by improvements in the way some data
items were calculated. Following are descriptions of
those changes.
•
Additional programs were added to the
government programs section to make the
descriptions more inclusive.
Data are
comparable.
•
Questions for on farm use of recycled and
reclaimed water were added. Data are published
in a new table.
•
In 2003 the percent of sales from livestock was
asked. In 2008 the question was changed to the
percent of sales from non-irrigated crop or
livestock sales. The 2008 data in Table 35 for
non-irrigated crop or livestock sales are not
comparable with 2003.
•
The formula for cost per acre was improved.
The previous calculation divided the sum of the
off-farm water expense by the total acre-feet of
off-farm water used, regardless if there was a fee
for the acre-feet used. The 2008 calculation only
uses the acre-feet in the denominator of the
formula if there was a fee for the producer.
•
In Table 25 for 2008, hired labor average
expense per acre irrigated is the sum of hired
irrigation labor reported in Section 14, item 1a
regardless of the value of item 2a, contract labor;
divided by the sum of total acres irrigated in
Section 2, column 2, item 5. In 2003 hired labor
average expense per acre irrigated was the sum
of hired irrigation labor reported in Section 14,
APPENDIX B B-1
item 1a when an individual report form’s item 1a
was greater than zero and item 1b, contract labor,
was zero; divided by the sum of total acres
irrigated in Section 2, column 2, item 5. Data are
not comparable.
Similarly, in 2008 hired contract irrigation labor
average expense per acre irrigated is the sum of
Section 14, item 1b regardless of the value
reported in item 1a, hired irrigation labor;
divided by the sum of total acres irrigated in
Section 2, column 2, item 5. In 2003, hired
contract irrigation labor average expense per acre
irrigated was the sum of hired contract irrigation
labor reported in Section 14, item 1b when an
individual report form’s item 1b was greater than
zero and item 1a, hired irrigation labor, was zero;
divided by the sum of total acres irrigated in
Section 2, column 2, item 5. Data are not
comparable.
•
•
In 2008 potato acres are included with Land in
vegetables in Tables 27 - 29. Irrigated yield and
non-irrigated yield are not published in 2008.
Potato acres were not included in Land in
vegetables in 2003. Data are not comparable. All
other potato data are comparable with 2003.
In Table 28 for crops with only two methods of
distribution, the 2003 column header “Sprinkler
system only” was changed to “Pressure systems”
to match the system code categories listed on the
report form. In 2008 pressure systems includes
data for system codes 01 through 14. For crops
with three primary methods of distribution, the
2003 column header “Sprinkler system only”
was changed to “Sprinkler system” to improve
the description. The data include system codes
01 through 12 and 14. System code 13 is
summarized separately.
depth of one foot. This is equivalent to 43,560 cubic
feet or 325,851 gallons.
Acres and quantity harvested. If two or more
crops were harvested from the same land during the
year (double cropping), the acres were counted for
each crop. Therefore, the total acres of all crops
harvested generally exceeded the acres of cropland
harvested. An exception to this procedure was hay
crops.
When more than one cutting of hay was taken from
the same acres, the acres were counted only once,
but the quantity harvested includes all cuttings. For
interplanted crops or ‘‘skip-row’’ crops, acres were
reported according to the portion of the field
occupied, whether by a crop or whether it was idle
land.
If a crop was interplanted in an orchard or vineyard
and harvested, then the entire orchard or vineyard
acreage was reported under land in bearing and nonbearing fruit orchards, citrus or other groves,
vineyards, and nut trees and the interplanted
estimated crop acreage was reported under the
appropriate crop.
Acres of land in bearing and non-bearing fruit
orchards, citrus or other groves, vineyards, and nut
trees were included in cropland harvested whether
the crop was harvested or not.
This section provides definitions and explanations of
specific terms and phrases used on the reports forms
or in the tables. Items in the publication tables that
carry the note “see text” also are explained.
Acres irrigated. Acres or area irrigated are the
acres of agricultural land to which water was applied
by any artificial or controlled means such as
sprinklers, flooding, furrows, or ditches, gated pipe,
hand watered, capillary mats, trough irrigation, ebband-flood irrigation, subirrigation, and spreader
dikes including preplanted, partial, and supplemental
irrigation. Land flooded was to be included as
irrigated only if the water was diverted to
agricultural land by dams, canals, or other works.
Chapter 1, Table 1 provides a comparison with the
2008 general FRIS data and the 2007 Census of
Agriculture data. Table A in this appendix also
provides census data for the leading irrigation States
for 1997, 2002, and 2007.
Acre-feet of water. An acre-foot of water is the
quantity of water required to cover one acre to a

and Ranch Irrigation report form. Crops such as
grass seed, sunflower seed, sugarcane, etc. were
included in other field crops. Data are comparable.
All other land. This category includes farmsteads,
buildings, livestock facilities, ponds, roads, ditches,
wasteland, etc. It includes those acres in the farm
operation not classified as cropland, woodland,
pastureland, or rangeland.
Application of commercial fertilizers or pesticides
in irrigation water. This inquiry was intended to
measure the number of farms and acres on which
fertilizer and pesticides were distributed through
irrigation systems. Review of the 2008 data suggests
that some operators may have missed the question on
the report form and left it blank while others reported
the entire acreage on which fertilizer and pesticides
were applied, not just the acres on which fertilizer
and pesticides were distributed through irrigation
systems.
Area under protection - square feet irrigated. In
Chapter 2 irrigated square feet is the total area used
to grow horticultural crops under protection, whether
harvested or not.
Area in the open - Acres irrigated. In Chapter 2
acres in the open irrigated is the total area irrigated
for horticultural crops grown in the open, whether
harvested or not.
Artesian wells. Artesian or flowing wells are wells
which flow freely and provide water used for
irrigation without pumping during the irrigation
season. All flowing or artesian wells were excluded
from data for pumped wells in Tables 15 and 16.
This should be taken into consideration when using
data from these two tables since the depths,
capacities, pressures, engine size, and hours operated
for pumped wells used in 2008 exclude artesian
wells. Data are comparable with 2003 data.
Average hours of operation. The average hours of
operation for pumped wells was calculated from the
reported hours operated for up to three individual
wells and the average hours for the remaining wells,
if any. Artesian wells were not included in the
average hours calculation. Some data collected
exceeded 8,760 hours, the maximum number of
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
hours in a year, meaning that some respondents
entered their total pump operating hours rather than
the average hours used. Records exceeding the
8,760 hour threshold were edited by the analyst to a
lower value or imputed.
Average operating pressure.
The average
operating pressure for pumped wells was reported
for up to three individual wells and as the average
operating pressure for the remaining wells, if any.
Artesian wells are not included as wells pumped.
The average operating pressure was calculated using
these reported data.
Average pumping capacity. The average pumping
capacity for pumped wells was reported for up to
three individual wells and as the average pumping
capacity for the remaining wells, if any. Artesian
wells are not included as wells pumped. The
average pumping capacity was calculated using these
reported data.
Barriers to making improvements to reduce
energy use or conserve water. This item shows the
barriers to implementing improvements that might
reduce energy and/or conserve water. Respondents
were asked to report for the period covering 2004 to
2008. The information was tabulated as reported.
No imputation was made for a blank response.
Cropland harvested. This category includes land
from which crops were harvested and hay was cut,
land used to grow short-rotation woody crops, and
land in orchards, citrus groves, Christmas trees,
vineyards, nurseries, and greenhouses. Land from
which two or more crops were harvested was
counted only once. Land in tapped maple trees was
included in woodland.
Cropland used only for pasture or grazing. This
category includes land used only for pasture or
grazing that could have been used for crops without
additional improvement. Also included are acres of
crops hogged or grazed but not harvested prior to
grazing. However, cropland that was pastured
before or after crops were harvested was included as
harvested cropland rather than cropland for pasture
or grazing.
Crops unit of measurement.
Crop units were

Estimated quantity of water applied. Most water
used for irrigation is not metered or measured
accurately. The quantity of water data are based on
the best estimates provided by irrigators. Generally,
in areas with water shortages, such as southern
California and Arizona, irrigators are more likely to
provide actual quantities of water used than in
Mountain States where water shortages may be less
of a problem or precise measuring methods are not
readily available. In the Mountain States where
water from snow-melt is diverted for use in season,
the amount of water used may be a rough estimate,
seldom a measured figure.
Expenditures for irrigation equipment, facilities,
land improvement, and computer technology and
Expenses for maintenance and repairs
of
irrigation equipment and facilities.
Some
respondents found it difficult to separate expenses
for new and replacement irrigation construction,
facilities, and equipment requested on the report
form in Section 7 from expenses for maintenance
and repairs of irrigation equipment and facilities
requested in Section 13. Data were reviewed for
consistency versus the size of the operation. Users
are reminded that the distinction between the two
expenditure categories was left to the respondent.
Farms using off-farm water. Respondents were
asked to report the amount (none, some, all, or
unknown) of off-farm water supplied by the U.S.
Bureau of Reclamation, other federal agencies, and
all other suppliers. However, many respondents did
not answer this question. Instead, the computer edit
set the entry to unknown. The number of farms
using water from U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, other
federal agencies, and all other suppliers may be
understated.
Flowing wells. See Artesian wells.
B-4 APPENDIX B
Christmas trees and short rotation woody crops.
Includes all trees to be cut in 2008 or later years.
Irrigated live Christmas trees were reported in
nursery crops.
Floriculture and bedding crops. Includes annual
bedding/garden plants, herbaceous perennials, cut
flowers and cut cultivated greens, foliage plants for
indoor or patio use, potted flowering plants, and
other floriculture type crops.
Food crops grown under protection. Includes all
food crops that were grown in a greenhouse or under
some sort of structure that regulated light, shade,
temperature, etc. No food crops grown in open
fields were reported for this crop type.
Mushroom crops. Includes all mushroom species
that were irrigated in 2008. Logs were converted to
and reported in square feet.
Nursery crops. Includes deciduous shade and
flowering trees, broadleaf and coniferous evergreens,
live Christmas trees for sale as potted trees or balled
and burlapped, fruit and nut plants, ornamental
grasses, palms for landscaping, shrubs, vines, aquatic
plants, and other woody ornamentals.
Propagative materials. Includes dry bulbs, corms,
tubers, and rhizomes; cuttings, seedlings, liners, and
plugs; flower seeds; vegetable seeds; vegetable
transplants; and tobacco transplants.
Sod. Includes all irrigated sod, sprigs, or plugs.
Other horticultural crops. Other horticultural crops
includes all crops that are primarily considered
ornamental or horticultural and are not listed
anywhere in the general version or the horticulture
version of the FRIS. Fruit, nut, and vegetable crops
grown in the open are not considered horticultural
crops and the irrigation data for these crops are
presented in Chapter 1.
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Improvements to irrigation systems that reduce
energy and/or conserve water used in irrigation.
This item shows the results farms experienced after
implementing new resource-conserving irrigation
systems. Respondents were asked to respond for the
period covering 2004 to 2008. The information was
tabulated as reported. No imputation was made for a
blank response.
Institutional, research, and experimental farms.
In the 2007 and 2002 Censuses of Agriculture, data
for these farms were combined with American
Indian reservation farms into one category.
However, in the 2008 and 2003 Farm and Ranch
Irrigation Surveys, only American Indian reservation
farms were included in the sample while
institutional, research, and experimental farms were
excluded.
Irrigated farms. Irrigated farms or ranches are
those with any agricultural land irrigated by any
artificial or controlled means in the specific calendar
year. The acreage irrigated may vary from a very
small portion of the total acreage in the farm or
ranch to irrigation of all agricultural land in the farm
or ranch.
This includes reclaimed water and
livestock lagoon wastewater distributed by sprinkler
or flood systems.
Irrigated land. Irrigated land is defined as “all land
watered by artificial or controlled means.” No
attempt was made to define the degree or intensity of
irrigation. Therefore, the data for irrigated land
include land with as little as one-half inch of water
applied as well as land with several acre-feet of
water applied.
Irrigation pumps. The inventory data for number
of irrigation pumps reported in Tables 17 and 18
include reserve pumps not actually used in the
survey year.
Land in farms. The acreage designated as ‘‘land in
farms’’ consists primarily of agricultural land used
for crops, pasture, or grazing. It also includes
woodland and wasteland not actually under
cultivation or used for pasture or grazing, provided it
was part of the farm operator’s total operation.
Large acreages of woodland or wasteland held for
nonagricultural purposes were removed from
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
individual reports during the data review process.
Land in farms includes idle cropland, cropland not
harvested, and land in government conservation
programs.
Land in farms is an operating unit concept and
includes land owned and operated as well as land
rented from others. Land used rent free was reported
as land rented from others. All grazing land, except
land used under government permits on a per-head
basis (AUM), was included as land in farms
provided it was part of a farm or ranch. All land in
American Indian reservations used for growing crops
or grazing livestock was included as land in farms.
Land in reservations not reported by individual
American Indians or non-Native Americans was
reported in the name of the cooperative group that
used the land. In some instances, an entire American
Indian reservation was reported as one farm.
Market value of agricultural products sold. This
category represents the gross market value before
taxes and production expenses of all agricultural
products sold or removed from the place during the
survey year, regardless of who received the payment.
It includes sales by the operators as well as the value
of any shares received by partners, landlords,
contractors, or others associated with the operation.
It represents the sum of all crops, including nursery
products, and livestock and poultry and their
products. Market value of agricultural products sold
does not include payments received for participation
in federal farm programs. Also, it does not include
income from farm-related sources such as
customwork and other agricultural services, or
income from nonfarm sources.
Nonirrigated crop yields. The nonirrigated crop
yield averages in Table 27 are for nonirrigated crops
harvested from irrigated farms and are not
comparable with nonirrigated crop yield averages for
total farms in the State.
Yields for sweet corn, tomatoes, lettuce, and
potatoes were asked. However, some respondents
left yields blank which required that the yield be
imputed. In many cases, yields that were reported
covered an extremely large range indicating
respondents did not always use the hundredweight
unit requested on the form. Therefore it was decided
APPENDIX B B-5
that yields for these four crops would not be
published.
North American Industry Classification System.
The North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS) classifies economic activities. It was jointly
developed by Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. The
NAICS makes it possible to produce comparable
industrial statistics for Mexico, Canada, and the U.S.
Farms were classified by NAICS code based on their
2007 census report(s). Establishments primarily
engaged in crop production are classified in major
group 111. Establishments primarily engaged in
production of livestock and animal specialties are
classified in major group 112. Establishments are
further classified into the appropriate six-digit code
for the commodity or commodities which account
for one-half of the establishment’s agricultural
production.
Off-farm water supply. Off-farm water supply is
water from off-farm water suppliers, such as the U.S.
Bureau of Reclamation; irrigation districts; mutual,
private, cooperative, or neighborhood ditches;
commercial companies; or community water
systems.
On-farm surface supply. On-farm surface supply
is water from a surface source not controlled by a
water supply organization. It includes sources such
as streams, drainage ditches, lakes, ponds, reservoirs,
and on-farm livestock lagoons on or adjacent to the
operated land.
Other cropland. Other cropland includes cropland
not harvested and not grazed. This includes land for
cover crops or soil-improvement crops, land on
which all crops failed, land in cultivated summer
fallow, idle cropland, and land planted in crops that
were to be harvested after the survey year.
Other pastureland and rangeland. This land use
category encompasses all grazable land that does not
qualify as cropland pasture. It may be irrigated or
dry land. In some areas, it can be a high quality
pasture that could not be cropped without
improvements. In other areas, it is barely grazable
and is only marginally better than wasteland.
Pumps by average operating pressure.

See
Average operating pressure.
Primary
source
of
funding
assistance.
Respondents were instructed to only report the
primary source of funding assistance. Nonresponses
to this item were summarized as “No funding
assistance.”
Reason for discontinuance of irrigation since
2007. These data reflect the expanded number of
operations that irrigated in 2007 but not in 2008 and
the acres or area irrigated in the previous census
year.
The data also show the reason for
discontinuance. Some respondents reported multiple
reasons, while others gave no specific reason. No
imputation was made for a blank response.
Reclaimed water. Reclaimed water is wastewater
that has been treated for non-potable reuse purposes.
Sources include municipal, industrial, or livestock
operations.
Recycled water. Recycled water is the reuse of
surface or ground water that has already been used to
irrigate a crop on the operation.
Solar pumps. The data were not published at the
State level because of low data reliability at the State
level. There are few operations with solar pumps in
the population.
Sources of irrigation information. These data
show which sources were used by farmers to help
them make irrigation decisions. The information for
this item was tabulated as reported. No imputation
was made for a blank response.
Sprinkler systems. Sprinkler irrigation is divided
into four areas to reflect current trends in irrigation.
The center pivot and mechanical-move methods are
classified as either high-pressure delivery with water
delivered at 60 psi or more, medium pressure
delivery with water delivered at 30 to 59 psi, or low
pressure delivery with water delivered at less than 30
psi. The mechanical-move systems are classified as
either linear move, side roll, wheel move, or big gun
where the sprinkler device is moved across the field
either by self-propelled methods or by tractor. Since
all big guns operate at high pressure, pressure was
not asked.
2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Hand move systems include distribution systems laid
out in the spring, moved through the field as needed
during the season by hand labor, and removed at the
end of the season. This includes other sprinkler
systems which are moved without mechanical
assistance.
Solid set and permanent systems are sprinklers
placed in the ground permanently and used mostly
for perennial crops.
Tailwater pits. Irrigation water is captured after the
initial application of irrigation water. The water
drains into a collection pit and is returned through an
irrigation system to irrigate the same field or other
fields.
Total cropland. This category includes cropland
harvested, cropland used only for pasture or grazing,
cropland idle or used for cover crops or soil
improvement but not harvested and not pastured or
grazed, cropland on which all crops failed or were
abandoned, and cropland in cultivated summer
fallow.
Water management practices. These practices
refer to gravity irrigation systems only.
The
respondent reported whether they used any of the 10
techniques listed on the report form and the number
of acres on which they applied this technique to save
water or improve efficiency. Some respondents
answered “Yes” to the screening question, item 1 in
Section 17, but did not indicate which technique they
used or the number of acres for any technique. No
imputation was made for a blank response.
Water Resources Regions (WRR). Data from
FRIS were tabulated by WRR. Boundaries of these
areas are shown on the map on page 1. Geographic
