  3. 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 ...
