The future expansion of agricultural production in the Willamette
Valley will depend to a large degree upon the feasibility of introducing
irrigated agriculture on the poorly drained soils in the Valley. A
r earch program has been initiated to investigate the feasibility of
rigation on poorly drained soils with the...
