It was interesting reading billonthefarm's post about his new well. It is interesting to learn what other farms across this country and the world have to deal with. I was surprised to read that his well was 600+ feet deep and could only pump 30 gal/min.
Our irrigation well was originally hand dug, but years ago had a steel casing installed. It is 47' deep and we can pump 300 gal/min. I'm sure we could pump more, but we would need a bigger pump. We are located in SW Washington state.
How far did the rest of you have to go for water and how much do you have?
