COMPARING PRODUCTION OPTIMIZATION STRATEGIES FOR TEXAS PANHANDLE PRODUCERS IN RESPONSE TO DECLINING WATER AVAILABILITY DUE TO DECLINE IN THE OGALLALA AQUIFER

In response to the declining availability of irrigation water from the Ogallala aquifer, irrigation at the level where MVP=MFC increases net returns over either irrigating to maximize production or meet 100% of the evapotranspiration (PET) requirements. This prolongs the economic life of the aquifer and increases the efficiency of irrigation.
