Moses Lake sits at the center of Grant County, which led every county in Washington with $2.61 billion in agricultural products sold in 2022 and ranked 10th out of more than 3,000 counties nationwide. Growers here irrigate 477,913 acres, nearly half of all county farmland, using Columbia Basin Project water pumped from the Columbia River at Grand Coulee Dam and delivered through more than 300 miles of main canals.
The county's largest crops by acreage are forage and hay, wheat, harvested vegetables, apples, and potatoes. Washington grows about 24 percent of all United States potatoes and averages 630 hundredweight per acre against a national average of 458, and the Washington State Potato Commission is headquartered in Moses Lake. Grant County also ranks first in the state for cattle and calves and third for milk.
Agnomy connects Moses Lake-area growers with verified local service providers who understand Columbia Basin irrigation, center-pivot systems, and row-crop rotations, making it easier to find, book, and manage the services your operation depends on.
