Census or Agriculture for 1992. <br />2. Yields were taken from New Mexico Agricultural Statistics, 1994 edition. <br />3. Prices reflect an average of 1988-1991 prices from the 1992 edition of Colorado Agricultural Statistics, deflated <br />according to the agriculture sector deflators provided in the 1995 Economic Report of the President. <br />4. Weighted output was obtained by multiplying each crop's production by its yield and summing over all crops. <br />The essence of the preceding tables is that they derive an average value for an acre of agricultural production within <br />a given county or area. For example, from Table B-AP-4, the value of agricultural output from an acre of land in <br />Montezuma County, Colorado is $223.30. Reduced agricultural water deliveries were translated into irrigated <br />acreage reductions and then into dollar impacts using these tables. <br />81
