Agricultural life in the high plains centers on the managed waters of the South Platte River, which flows through this landscape alongside the town of Merino. This 2022 survey illustrates the sophisticated irrigation network vital to the region, including the Pawnee Ditch, Davis Brothers Ditch, Company Ditch, and S Platte Ditch. These waterways support the dry-land farming and ranching operations that have defined Logan County for generations.
