<br /> <br />Irrigated Acres by Basin <br /> <br /> <br />. South Platte: 1,027,000 <br /> <br />. Greater Colorado Combined: 875,000 <br /> <br />. Rio Grande: 633,000 <br /> <br />. Arkansas: 405,000 <br /> <br />. North Platte: 116,000 <br /> <br />These numbers come from the SWSI Study. I have taken the liberty, at <br />great risk to myself, of combining the Colorado River and it's tributaries. County <br />lines don't always follow basin and tributary boundaries. To keep it as easy to <br />follow as possible combining some systems and areas seemed prudent. <br />The South Platte's irrigated acreage includes the Republican River <br />because there is no other logical place to put it. <br />
