# Irrigation water wells in Kansas — 24,315 records > 24,315 Kansas wells are recorded for irrigation. Where they are, how deep they go and who drilled them. ## Irrigation **24,315** of the 314,779 WWC-5 records in Kansas — 7.7%. ### What this use means watering crops, at the volume an appropriation allows. These are the deep, high-yield wells, and they are the ones most often tied to a DWR water right. *Medians, on the records where the driller reported a figure — never a mean, which a handful of deep irrigation wells would carry away* | Measurement | Median | 90th percentile | Kansas median | |---|---|---|---| | Depth | **145 ft** | 498 ft | 60 ft — deeper here (24,237 records, 100 %) | | Static water level | **46 ft** | 238 ft | 24 ft — higher here (23,419 records, 96 %) | | Estimated yield | **900 gpm** | 1625 gpm | 25 gpm — higher here (13,453 records, 55 %) | ### Where they are | County | Records | Share | |---|---|---| | [Finney](/county/finney/irrigation.md) | 1,668 | 6.9% | | [Sedgwick](/county/sedgwick/irrigation.md) | 1,277 | 5.3% | | [Haskell](/county/haskell/irrigation.md) | 1,137 | 4.7% | | [Gray](/county/gray/irrigation.md) | 1,127 | 4.6% | | [Reno](/county/reno/irrigation.md) | 1,121 | 4.6% | | [Pawnee](/county/pawnee/irrigation.md) | 1,060 | 4.4% | | [Kearny](/county/kearny/irrigation.md) | 967 | 4.0% | | [Edwards](/county/edwards/irrigation.md) | 879 | 3.6% | | [Stafford](/county/stafford/irrigation.md) | 770 | 3.2% | | [Stevens](/county/stevens/irrigation.md) | 724 | 3.0% | | [Harvey](/county/harvey/irrigation.md) | 679 | 2.8% | | [Pratt](/county/pratt/irrigation.md) | 613 | 2.5% | | [Ford](/county/ford/irrigation.md) | 561 | 2.3% | | [Meade](/county/meade/irrigation.md) | 545 | 2.2% | | [Grant](/county/grant/irrigation.md) | 529 | 2.2% | | [Barton](/county/barton/irrigation.md) | 514 | 2.1% | | [Seward](/county/seward/irrigation.md) | 471 | 1.9% | | [Mcpherson](/county/mcpherson/irrigation.md) | 443 | 1.8% | | [Stanton](/county/stanton/irrigation.md) | 442 | 1.8% | | [Wichita](/county/wichita/irrigation.md) | 438 | 1.8% | | [Scott](/county/scott/irrigation.md) | 404 | 1.7% | | [Rice](/county/rice/irrigation.md) | 399 | 1.6% | | [Sumner](/county/sumner/irrigation.md) | 399 | 1.6% | | [Thomas](/county/thomas/irrigation.md) | 399 | 1.6% | | [Hodgeman](/county/hodgeman/irrigation.md) | 360 | 1.5% | | [Sheridan](/county/sheridan/irrigation.md) | 342 | 1.4% | | [Kiowa](/county/kiowa/irrigation.md) | 314 | 1.3% | | [Rush](/county/rush/irrigation.md) | 307 | 1.3% | | [Shawnee](/county/shawnee/irrigation.md) | 273 | 1.1% | | [Kingman](/county/kingman/irrigation.md) | 272 | 1.1% | ### What stands out for irrigation The busiest contractor on these records is **Rosencrantz-bemis Enterprises, INC**, named on 3,380 of them (13.9%), ahead of Minter-wilson Drlg. Co., INC (1,973) and Clarke Well and Equipment, INC (1,811). The oldest record here was completed in **1971** and the most recent in 2026, and the deepest well on file reaches **1380 feet** — a irrigation well drilled by Double J Energy in 2015. ### Plugging records — for irrigation **4,438** of the 24,315 records for irrigation carry a plugging report (18.3%), filed on form WWC-5P. The other **19,877** do not. That is **not** a list of abandoned wells, and this site never calls them that. Kansas defines abandonment by *use* — a well unused for two years — and nothing in this register tracks use. What the absence of a plugging report does mean is that the State has never been told the well was sealed. On the **10,455** records here completed before 1995, that is exactly what a buyer checks.

If a well on your land is no longer used, Kansas requires it to be plugged and the duty falls on the landowner — with cost-share of up to USD 1,000 per well through the Kansas Department of Agriculture. This site reads the register; it does not drill and it does not plug. Tell us where and we pass the request to licensed Kansas well contractors. We recommend no contractor and we are nobody's agent. We have no arrangement with any firm today — we are collecting these requests in order to go and find them. [What we do with this](/privacy.md). ### The records *Irrigation — « plugging report » reads *yes* where a WWC-5P was filed and a dash where none was, which is NOT a finding that the well is abandoned. A 0 means the driller reported no figure, not a measurement of zero. The legal description is on the record, never on a page.* | WWC-5 | Drilled by | Use | Depth (ft) | Yield (gpm) | Year | Plugging report | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | [1057177546](/search.md) |
