When the pivots were originally developed there were end guns involved that irrigated more acres. When the Palm family took the farm over by purchasing it, they quickly realized that there was not enough water to get over all of the acres. The end guns were taken off which reduce the amount of tillable acres to 938. This is what is currently being farmed. In addition the small pivot located on the south portion of the farm is basically not being used. The well that services that pivot does not have adequate water. So at this time irrigated hay takes much less water. However the tenant is paying $175 an acre for all of the 938 acres. The advantage of this is that in a water controlled area you have more water by more than an inch per acre over the allocation. This means in a dry year you have enough water to produce an excellent crop. The Palm Family eventually sold the farm & was given the opportunity to rent the farm.
