Central Oregon Irrigation Field Days Set For This Month

With temperatures warming up across the region, six irrigation field days will take place across Central Oregon. Each will start at 9 a.m. and run through most of the day. According to Oregon State Extension officials, the main focus will be the virtues of converting to LESA/LEPA/MDI system pivots and linears, along with other irrigation technologies, to help increase water use efficiency, and reduce water use and power cost.

The field days are scheduled for:

• May 11^th in Jefferson County
• May 12^th in Crook County
• May 13^th in Deschutes County
• May 18^th Harney County
• May 19^th in Lake County
• May 20^th Klamath County
