dc.descriptionThe topic is irrigation and the evaluation of soil and water sources for such applications. Irrigation is the application of water to soil to assure that sufficient moisture is available for good plant growth. North Dakota is a humid area where water is supplied by irrigation only during dry periods. Any given location in the state can have wet and dry months as ell'as wet and dry years. This article focuses upon those things deemed most important in the determination of the suitability of land for irrigation purposes. A thorough evaluation of the soil, drainage and topography are needed when planning for dry land farming. Quality of irrigation water is also important. The farm operator needs a complete inventory and evaluation of the above factors when considering irrigation.
