Pasco anchors Franklin County, which sold just over $1 billion of agricultural products in 2022, fourth highest in Washington behind Grant, Yakima, and Benton. Crop sales made up roughly two thirds of that total, so local service demand skews toward row crop and orchard work rather than ranching. Farmland covers close to three quarters of the county.
Almost all of that production is irrigated. The 2022 Census recorded 179,580 irrigated acres, and the South Columbia Basin Irrigation District, headquartered in Pasco, covers roughly 250,000 acres and delivers about 825,000 acre feet a year, with 95 percent of district lands watered by sprinkler. Wheat leads by acreage, followed by hay, potatoes, and corn, alongside 9,097 bearing acres of apples and 2,546 of grapes.
