If you are considering whether farm drainage will benefit your farm and fields, you may want to consider the marked advantages that carefully completed farm drainage offers you as your return on investment.
Higher Crop Yields
Farm drainage improves your crop yields by making sure your crops get the right amount of moisture throughout the growing season. When spring rains saturate your soil, a good drainage system will drain excess moisture away. When this is done, your crops will develop deep root systems that will sustain them through the drier summer months and ultimately increase your yields. Of course, with a deeper root system, your fertilizer will also be more effective.
Cost Reduction
Farm drainage reduces cropping costs by ensuring the best yields for your investment. It eliminates your field's "wet spots" that cannot be planted in the spring and allows you to make full use of your land. It also helps to minimize the risk of soil compaction. And in addition, your farm drainage costs are 100% tax deductible.
Increased Farm Value
Farm drainage can make the entire difference in whether your farm resells above or below what is considered current market values. If you view your farm land as an investment, then be sure to consider how farm drainage can extend that investment.
