|a Today, the area that once comprised the historical Everglades south of Lake Okeechobee can be divided into three functional areas. The Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA) immediately south of Lake Okeechobee is a highly productive agricultural area of about 2850 km . Of this, approximately 75% of the area has been developed into agricultural usage supporting three principle crops including sugar (45%), pasture (20%) and vegetable crops (10%). Most of the remaining 25% is undeveloped, with less than 5% consisting of the urban areas of Clewiston, South Bay and Belle Glade (~ickson et al., 1978).
The five water conservation areas of the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) are located south of the Everglades Agrifultural Area. These water conservation areas consist of approximately 4,750 km of marsh-type wetlands that were once part of the historic Everglades. Today, a network of canals, levees, gates and pumps encircle the system and allow the artificial manipulation of water levels within and throughout these areas for the purposes of flood control and water storage. |
