The primary function of the MIL is to provide comprehensive reports to producers that detail how their irrigation system is performing that includes tips, suggestions, and recommendations based on data collected during the inspection. 2021 irrigation evaluations are starting soon! Sign up for the 2021 evaluation season by contacting Kevin Greer at kevin@tehamacountyrcd.org or by calling (530) 727-1280.
