  2. Tile drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tile_drainage

    Tile drainage. Tile drainage is a form of agricultural drainage system that removes excess sub-surface water from fields to allow sufficient air space within the soil, proper cultivation, and access by heavy machinery to tend and harvest crops. While surface water can be drained by pumping, open ditches, or both, tile drainage is often the most ...

  3. Drainage system (agriculture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_system_(agriculture)

    Field drainage systems are differentiated in surface and subsurface field drainage systems. Sometimes (e.g., in irrigated , submerged rice fields ), a form of temporary drainage is required whereby the drainage system is allowed to function only on certain occasions (e.g., during the harvest period).

  4. Watertable control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watertable_control

    The design of subsurface drainage systems in terms layout, depth and spacing of the drains is often done using subsurface drainage equations with parameters like drain depth, depth of the water table, soil depth, hydraulic conductivity of the soil and drain discharge. The drain discharge is found from an agricultural water balance.

  5. Drainage equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_equation

    A drainage equation is an equation describing the relation between depth and spacing of parallel subsurface drains, depth of the watertable, depth and hydraulic conductivity of the soils. It is used in drainage design. Parameters in Hooghoudt's drainage equation. A well known steady-state drainage equation is the Hooghoudt drain spacing equation.

  6. Drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage

    Drainage. High-density polyethylene pipe installation in a storm drain project, Mexico. Drainage is the natural or artificial removal of a surface's water and sub-surface water from an area with excess water. The internal drainage of most agricultural soils can prevent severe waterlogging (anaerobic conditions that harm root growth), but many ...

  7. Well drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_drainage

    Vertical drainage systems are drainage systems using pumped wells, either open dug wells or tube wells. Map of a well field for subsurface drainage with radial flow across concentrical cylinders representing the equipotentials. Both systems serve the same purposes, namely water table control and soil salinity control. Both systems can ...

  8. Surface irrigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_irrigation

    While this is a lesser issue for surface irrigation compared to other irrigation methods (due to the comparatively high leaching fraction), lack of subsurface drainage may restrict the leaching of salts from the soil. This can be remedied by drainage and soil salinity control through flushing.

  9. Water balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_balance

    Further it is used in the design of subsurface drainage systems which may be horizontal (i.e. using pipes, tile drains or ditches) or vertical (drainage by wells). [7] To estimate the drainage requirement, the use of a hydrogeological water balance and a groundwater model (e.g. SahysMod [8]) may be instrumental.
