Tile drained land will lower your unit cost of production and help you compete in the marketplace.
Tile drainage is a best management practice.
It reduces soil erosion and assists in the reduction of phosphorus in streams. The benefits of land drainage are many and depend on the condition and management of the farm after the work is done. Grazing periods are extended two to three weeks in the fall, thus saving on barn feeding. Well-drained soils carry more livestock per acre with less damage to the soil compared to poorly drained soil. Tile drained soils create uniform field conditions for early field work.
