Ideally, land drains are laid with access points so that high pressure water jetting is possible to clear silt. However, whatever the technology, all land drains have a finite life and eventually become ineffective due to the ingress of silt and/or the blocking of the surrounding filter media.
"Over a mile long reach [of the water channel] adds up to over 1.5 acre of land needed for the two stage drainage ditch design". This acreage of land may already be currently used for other purposes or contains infrastructure and subsurface gas or sewer lines. Thus, the larger the channel is, the more soil, and thus, increased funds required to ...
Available water is that which the plants can utilize from the soil within the range between field capacity and wilting point. Roughly speaking for agriculture (top layer soil), soil is 25% water, 25% air, 45% mineral, 5% other; water varies widely from about 1% to 90% due to several retention and drainage properties of a given soil.
