The owner is presently using 17 irrigation wells and plans to install pumps in two or three additional wells. All wells have either submersible electric motors and pumps or turbine pumps with vertical hollow-shaft electric motors. Recently installed high-pressure (50#) plastic, under-ground lines connect all wells and sprinklers and are shown on attached maps. There is one booster pump with 50hp electric motor to assist with moving water from this farm to an adjoining farm that is also for sale by the same owner. The only non-irrigation improvement is a 60X120 Star-built metal frame barn.

Wells range in depth from 390 to 470 with steel casing and pumps set near the bottom of the hole. Water district maps show a 2012 estimate of the saturated thickness of the water-bearing formation to be 80 to 160 with the greater depth found on the north side of the property. The owner states that current water depths range from 80 to 120. Two nearby water-district monitor wells had 10.06 and 10.25 declines from 2003 to 2013. A third monitor well which was later added approximately mile north of the property shows only a 1.13 drop in water depth from 2006 to 2013. The water-bearing formation in this area does not release water as fast as some areas with higher producing wells but appears to have experienced less decline in water depth than the higher producing areas.

This is an excellent farm with a well-designed, high-quality irrigation infrastructure and is located in close proximity to several dairies and feedyards. The owner would be willing to lease and continue to operate the farm.
