This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost of Irrigation Water in California: A Cooperative Report In California the following types of enterprises furnish irriga tion water: public utilities. Contract companies, irrigation districts, mutual water companies, individuals. Partnerships, associations, pri vate companies, United States Bureau of Reclamation, United States Indian Service, State land settlements, water works districts, municipal improvement districts and reclamation districts. However, for the purpose of this investigation, most of the data collected may be grouped in four classes: public utilities, mutual water companies, irrigation districts and farm irrigation pumping plants. For a report of this character to be useful in published form, it should give information on the type of irrigation system, locality, age, source of water supply, amount of water delivered, acreage irrigated, crops raised, capital invested, and water charges, in addition to annual cost of water to the irrigator. In this study such data were obtained by visiting the principal irrigation enterprises of the state. The tables on cost of irrigation water are based on data furnished by the agency distributing the water or by the water user. On the major and more important tables, a notation to this effect is made. It was neither feasible nor practicable to extend the investigation to include all irrigation enterprises in California. However, it is believed that the data presented are well representative of the costs throughout the state. Much information collected was so fragmentary and incomplete that its inclusion was not warranted. \vhile the report covers the past several years, the data for the vear 1929 are presented in more detail than that for other years.

Download or read book Permissible Annual Charges for Irrigation Water in Upper San Joaquin Valley written by Frank Adams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-25 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Permissible Annual Charges for Irrigation Water in Upper San Joaquin Valley: A Cooperative Report by the College of Agriculture, University of California Table 1 shows the, excess of farm income over the costs of producing and harvesting the crops considered, together with interest on the average investment at 6 per cent per annum; also the amounts it is believed can reasonably be. Paid for irrigation water. The costs considered permissible. Are for a full supply of water delivered at the land on which it is to be used. And are therefore intended to include all such items as interest and principal payments on necessary capital expenditures for irrigation works and water supply, costs of maintenance and operation of irrigation works, as ordinarily understood, and supplemental pumping. It is not suggested that none of the growers in the upper San Joaquin Valley can pay higher irrigation charges for the different crops studied than are arrived at herein. Some, of course, produce more than others. And there are wide differences in the efficiency of growers, types of farm enterprises, amount of: working capital available, and the numerous other factors that determine cost of production and farm income. Neither is it suggested that the charges proposed can be paid by all of the growers, this also being because of the differences mentioned above. The permissible charges suggested are intended to be base, charges which will be assessed in accordance with the earning capacity of the land; that is. On a benefit or ad valorem basis.

Download or read book Ground Water for Irrigation in the Sacramento Valley California Classic Reprint written by Kirk Bryan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ground Water for Irrigation in the Sacramento Valley, California The price Of land is based on its anticipated value under irrigation and not on its value for dry farming. When subdivided, it is sold for two to three times its value for grain-raising, and for many tracts the purchaser must provide the means Of irrigation. The colonizing Of subdivided lands has become a business and is in the main con ducted by reputable firms. A large block Of land is purchased and surveyed into small tracts with provision for roads and perhaps for a town site. Irrigation works may be provided or a demonstration well and pumping plant installed with the intention that the settlers should install private plants, using wells for Obtaining water. Pur Chasers are attracted by agents and advertising. Charges of fraud have been made and doubtless in some cases are justified, but wide publicity and Cooperation among real estate men are eliminating false and exaggerated statements. Intending settlers should exercise cau tion, view the property, compare it with Similar Offers, and be sure that they are getting good land well situated for a fair price. The value of farm land rests primarily on the quality of the soil and the value Of the crops which it will produce, but the price Of similar land varies with proximity to market, towns, and schools, with danger of floods and assessments for reclamation, with the kind of irrigation feasible, and with many other local factors. The formation Of an intelligent judgment will be assisted bya study of reports of the United States Bureau Of Soils, covering large parts Of the valley, which are given in the following list.

This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation in the North Atlantic States Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a report on Irrigation in the North Atlantic States, by Aug. J. Bowie, r., of the Irrigation and Drainage Investigations of this Office. This report shows that for market gardens and for meadows irrigation in humid sections has proven profitable, but it has not yet been practiced in the raising of general farm crops. The cost of securing water supplies in the East far exceeds that in the arid regions, although water is much more plentiful. This suggests that it may be possible to so reduce the cost of water as to render irrigation profitable for many crops which will not repay the expense now incurred. The descriptions of irrigation practice contained in this report should be suggestive to many who are now raising truck without the aid of irrigation, and it is therefore rec ommended that the report be published as a bulletin of this Office.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplemental Report on Water Resources of California: A Report to the Legislature of 1925 The cause of these large areas being only partly occupied, does not emanate from sluggishness in the rate of settlement on California's lands, for California is outstripping all other states of the Union in the rate of its increasing agricultural production. On the contrary, the cause of the only partly occupied irrigated lands issues directly from the large size of new projects, that in a year or two, bring under irrigation in one community, an area of land greater than can be absorbed by normal growth within as many decades. During these years, many tracts, making little use of the available water supply, are heavily taxed to pay the costs of works unused by them.

These records were obtained by months and are for periods of one to eight years. Under an informal cooperative agreement with the Coachella Valley County Water District in which that organization did most of the origi nal field work, a crop and well survey was made between the fall of 1936 and the spring of 1937. From these data a crop and well map was later prepared for the Valley. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
