2017 Map of Loma

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Butler and Saunders counties is defined by a dense network of water management features and rural infrastructure. Brainard and Loma serve as the primary hubs for this region, with the surrounding countryside intricately carved by Skull Cr and several branches of Oak Cr. The area is notably shaped by numerous engineered water bodies, including Ptacek Reservoir, North Oak Creek Reservoir 6-A, and Butler County Reservoir 63-A, which illustrate the complex local irrigation and flood control systems integrated into the farming economy.
