An agricultural well is a private well that’s used specifically for agricultural purposes.

Agricultural wells are drilled into the ground (the depth of the well depends on the location of the aquifer), and have a diameter of about 6 inches.

The water pumped from an agricultural well may be used to irrigate crops or land, or supply water to livestock. It can also be used to water lawns and yards.

The big difference between domestic water wells and agricultural wells is that domestic wells provide potable water that’s safe to drink, while the water supply from an agricultural well shouldn’t be used by humans for drinking.
