LOWER SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS
FOREWORD
r
r
The data contained in this report are based upon
estimates and actual records of operations within an
area described as the Lower South Central Texas.
Counties included in tins area are Atascosa, Wilson,
Devvitt, Goliad, Live Oak, McMullen, Duval and Jim
Hogg. Even in a region so narrowly defined, varia
tions in inputs, returns and cropping practices exist
among farms and managers. These budgets should
serve as useful guides in planning and decision making
for agriculturists concerned with the area.
Assumptions used in the development of these
budgets include the following items. Irrigated bud
gets were developed specifically for Wilson and
Atascosa Counties. However, they should provide
information for irrigated producers utilizing water
from the Carrizo Sands in Frio and LaSalle Counties.
Due to the cost of irrigation, irrigated crops are
generally crops having higher income potential. Due
to the intensive nature of irrigated production, irriga
ted producers are normally high level managers utiliz
ing six-row equipment. Underground water avail
ability limits irrigation in counties in the southern
counties of the area. The majority of farms in the
area .are dryland. Typical dryland operators utilize
four-row equipment. Since these operations are
normally less intensive, farm equipment was assigned
longer asset life.
Size of farms vary in this area. The typical dry
land farmer was assumed to farm 250 acres of farm
land and have rangeland utilized for livestock pro
duction. The irrigated producer was assumed to farm
600 acres. Irrigated production centers around the
use of the irrigation wells and often additional farm
land is owned to allow rotational use of the land for
higher cash crops. Tins additional land is often
farmed dryland and receives "supplemental" irriga
tion when water is available.
Irrigation well and pumping depth vary over the
irrigated area with well depth ranging from 400 feet
to 3,000 feet. The typical well depth is 1,500 feet
with a pumping depth of 300 feet. While some
irrigation engines are operated by natural gas and
electricity, diesel is the most widely utilized fuel type.
Therefore, irrigation costs for these budgets are based
on diesel engines. The typical well capacity is 1,000
g.p.m. and services 160 acres. The sprinkler distri
bution systems utilized are hand move, side roll and
center pivot. While each system has individual
advantages, the majority of new systems installed are
side roll systems. Therefore, costs are based on use of
the side roll systems.
No typical crop share arrangement could be identi
fied in the region, therefore, the cash rent basis of
allocating a land charge was utilized throughout the
budgets.
