Excerpt from Field Demonstrations of Best Management Practices to Protect Groundwater Quality, 1992: Mid-Nebraska Demonstration Project
There are million acres of cultivated land in the 15-county area encompassed by the Mid Nebraska Water Quality Demonstration Project (see map below). This area has been irrigated for more than 60 years and continuous corn production is the most common agricultural practice on the majority of the irrigated acres. The investments made in irrigation capabilities and the usda farm program provisions strongly influence cropping decisions in this area.
