2021 Map of Tres Picos Farms

About this map

The Governor Edmund G Brown California Aqueduct dominates this agricultural landscape within the San Joaquin Valley, cutting a distinct diagonal through the geometric grid of Fresno County's section lines. The map reveals the massive scale of water management required for industrial-scale farming in the Central Valley, where natural watercourses like Cantua Cr, Salt Cr, and Martinez Cr are often diverted or channeled to navigate around the vast fields. A network of named arterial roads, including S Oil City Ave and the Coalinga-Mendota Rd, provides the essential infrastructure for transporting crops and equipment across this deeply surveyed terrain. This modern survey captures the region's total conversion to an engineered agricultural environment, where even the terrain labels like Cantua Creek refer to a landscape defined by irrigation and precise land division.
