Abstract

Although improved tillage practices, application of commercial fertilizers, and improved crop varieties have raised the general production level in the Upper Snake River dryfarming areas, the benefits realized from these advances are generally limited by moisture supply. The has been demonstrated by the wide range of crop yields associated with year-to-year fluctuations in stored soil moisture and precipitation.
