    • USDA Census of Irrigation

    Metadata Updated: August 13, 2025

    The 2018 Irrigation and Water Management Survey (formerly called the Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey) is a follow-on to the 2017 Census of Agriculture by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). This survey provides the only comprehensive information on irrigation activities and water use across American farms, ranches, and horticultural operations. In responding to the survey, producers provide information on topics such as water sources and amount of water used, acres irrigated by type of system, irrigation and yield by crop, and system investments and energy costs.

    The full reports for the 2003, 2008, 2017, and 2018 surveys are provided in this submission. By following the link to the USDA Census of Irrigation, a specific year can be selected, in which the tables and figures of each report are provided.
