Water conservation for on-farm use incorporating state-of-the-art technologies are helping farmers in drought potential areas.  Technologies including using alternative methods to deliver irrigation water to crops using surge valve with polypipe delivery, drip irrigation and micro-jet spray irrigation practices.  Collecting information such as: crop (varieties), acres irrigated, irrigation method- drip tape (emitter spacing, rate), micro-jet (configuration of jets/tree and rate) and soil types and classifications will enable future speculation on best fit uses of irrigation technology for farmers.  By monitoring yields of crops in relation to different types of irrigation will indicate to farmers of the Lower Rio Grande Valley that sustainable fruit and vegetable production is possible with water saving techniques.
