Water:
Precipitation is generally adequate for crops, but in years of little or no precipitation yields are reduced by a lack of moisture. Locally, small areas along some of the perennial streams are irrigated. On most farms, shallow wells in glacial drift supply water for domestic and livestock needs. Small ponds and reservoirs are other important sources of water for livestock. In some places, deep wells provide water.
