<br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />"01355 <br /> <br />All of these parcels are currently unirrigated, but show the potential <br />for having the benefits of irrigation exceed the costs of converting <br />them to irrigated agricultural use. <br />The potentially irrigable parcels in the Piedra Watershed are <br />listed in Table 5-1, along with a description of the characteristics <br />of each parcel. The first four columns of Table 5-1 give the parcel <br />number, net irrigable acres, land class and climatic zone descriptions <br />for each parcel. The fifth column of Table 5-1, entitled "Cropping <br />Pattern Suitability", provides an indication of whether the cropping <br />pattern that maximizes repayment capacity is suitable for the land <br />class of the individual parcel under consideration. Column six of <br />Table 5-1 provides a description of the percentage amount of tree <br />canopy on each parcel, and column seven provides a description of the <br />parcel's distance from the theoretical central location of a farm <br />equipment warehouse. The remaining columns in Table 5-1 describe any <br />adjustments that were made to preliminary repayment capacity to <br />reflect each parcel's characteristics. <br />As Table 5-1 shows, Parcels P5, P7 and P9 constitute <br />approximately 204 acres of potentially irrigable lands in climatic <br />zone E in the Piedra Watershed. There parcels are in close proximity <br />to each other, and could be farmed as a single unit. Parcels P5 and <br />P7 have land classes suitable for the alfalfa, malt barley rotation <br />that maximizes repayment capacity in climatic zone E. Approximately <br />35 acres of Parcel P9, however, has a 4A land classification that is <br />suitable only for native hay production. <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br />. <br />
