GIS shapefile and related summary data describing irrigated agricultural land use for the 15 counties fully within the Northwest Florida Water Management District, Florida, 2021

A Geographic Information System (GIS) shapefile and summary tables of irrigated agricultural land-use are provided for the 15 counties fully within the Northwest Florida Water Management District (Bay, Calhoun, Escambia, Franklin, Gadsden, Gulf, Holmes, Jackson, Leon, Liberty, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa, Wakulla, Walton, and Washington counties). These files were compiled through a cooperative project between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Office of Agricultural Water Policy. Information provided in the shapefile includes the location of irrigated lands that were verified during field surveying that started in May 2021 and concluded in August 2021. Field data collected were crop type, irrigation system type, and primary water source used. A map image of the shapefile is also provided. Previously published estimates of irrigation acreage for years since 1982 are included in summary tables.
