WrB Wilid silty clay loam 1 to 3% slopes 23.20% 6c

WyB Wilid silt loam 0 to 3% slopes 14.70% 4c

MzA Manzanola silty clay loam 0 to 2% slopes 13.60% 4c

Wilid Series- The Wilid series consists of very deep, well drained soils that formed in loess. Wilid soils are on plains and interfluves in MLRA 69. Slopes range from 0 to 12 percent. The mean annual precipitation is about 305 millimeters (12 inches). The mean annual temperature is about 11 degrees C (52 degrees F). These soils are rangeland or nonirrigated cropland. Native vegetation is mainly blue grama, galleta, sand dropseed, and western wheatgrass. It is correlated to the Loamy Ecological Site Description.

Irrigation Water: Oasis Farms, LLC contains a total of 5,965.9 shares of the Model Land & Irrigation Company, out of a total of 5,967.9 shares, equal to 99.97% of the company. The subject is the only farm which uses water from this system, and approximately 80% of the Model ditch is owned and operated by the subject property.

Additionally, these water rights equate to approximately 1/3 of the water held in the Trinidad

Reservoir Dam.

The water rights were originally decreed at 6,177 acres in 1925, and were appropriated in 1908 for 200 cfs from the Purgatoire River.

Over time, portions of the water rights have been vacated, leaving a current total of 4,947.84 acres of irrigation water rights. The water rights are administered through the Purgatoire River Water Conservation District.

Furthermore, diversions from the Purgatoire River into the Model Ditch vary greatly on an

annual basis due to the amount of mountain rains and snow melt in the mountains west of

Trinidad in the Purgatoire River watershed. As such, the previously mentioned storage

rights located at the Trinidad Reservoir Dam become extremely beneficial.

Over the past 10 years, annual water diversions range from 236.4 acre feet to 20,464.6

acre feet, with an average of 5,092.67 acre feet. This average calculates to approximately

1.03 AF per acre for the 4,947.84 acres of water rights associated with the subject property.

The property contains significant infrastructure which catches and recycles remaining irrigation water after flood application. This infrastructure includes a series of ditches, canals, storage reservoirs, and water pumps strategically located throughout the property, and provides the ability to catch unused flood irrigation water and transfer it to various portions of the property for additional irrigation use. This has somewhat of a multiplying effect on the annual water diversions applied to the property.
