Rapid urban and sub-urban expansion in the San Joaquin Valley have resulted in the loss of millions of acres of prime farmland in the last 100 years. Approximately 11% of class 1 (irrigated) land and 7% of class 2 land have already been paved over in the Fresno-Madera region (first image below). Recent projections in the expansion of urban areas in this region suggests that by 2085 an additional 28% of class 1 and 25% of class 2 land will be paved over (second image below). This is a preliminary summary– details to follow.
