REPORT TO THE

BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL
OF THE UNITED STATES

Better Federal Coordination
Needed To Promote

More Efficient Farm Irrigation

Department of the Interior
Department of Agriculture
Environmental Protection Agency

Over half the water delivered to farms for irri-
gation is wasted through overwatering which
can
--limit crop production,
--increase farming costs, and
--contribute to water pollution.
Federal agencies should determine the extent
and causes of overirrigating and the role the
Government should play in solving the related
problems.
