| Abstract |
The land area of nine counties in New Mexico was classified according to its economic potential for irrigated crop production. Crop enterprise budgets were developed for production alternatives on 65 soils in the nine counties. Net returns for representative crop combinations were regressed on four soils and two climatic variables to obtain a predictive equation that was used to rate and classify all soils within the nine counties in four irrigable and two nonirrigable classes. Additional analysis is made possible by use of the predictive equations as soil surveys of the remaining counties become available. (WRSIC abstract) |
