View from the canal road. Several hundred acres. Pictures taken today. Red arrow is onions. Blue arrow is cabbage. Green arrow is sugar cane. The canal road runs between 2 canals, an upper and a lower. The canal in the foreground of the first picture is the lower.
And this is the upper canal which feeds our imediate area. The water comes out of the Rio Grande River to a large holding tank, then pumped up into these raised canals for gravity flow irrigation. You can see to the left, the field being flood irrigated. This is in deep South Texas near the Mexico border.
