About this map

The Alamo River winds through this heavily irrigated landscape of Imperial County, California, just before the turn of the 1980s. The map illustrates a highly organized agricultural grid defined by an intricate network of canals and drains, such as the Mesquite Drain and Rubber Canal. Central to this agricultural engine is the University of California Imperial Valley Field Station near Meloland, signifying the region's importance to desert research and large-scale farming.
