1. Higher Yields

A proper drainage system will improve crop yields by 30% on average.

2. Higher Land Value

Tiling adds value to your land, making subsurface drainage an excellent investment.

3. High Return on Investment

Even when compared to machinery purchases, tiling has one of the highest returns on your investment within the Ag industry.

4. Deeper Root Growth

A proper drainage system lowers the water table. Crop roots then grow deeper to seek water. In turn, the roots have a greater source of nutrients available to them.

5. Superior Soil Structure

Proper field drainage results in soil granulation. The porous soil helps to retain levels of water and air that are necessary for optimal crop growth.

6. Reduced Soil Compaction

 Properly drained fields experience faster drying times. Dryer soils allow for operation of large machinery sooner and without the risk of compacting your ground.

7. Longer Growing Seasons

 The dry ground allows for earlier planting. Earlier planting means more time for the crop to fully mature.

8. Drought Tolerant

 As mentioned above, the lower water table of tiled ground causes roots to naturally grow deeper. Should you experience a dry period, the deep roots are still capable of reaching water and nutrients.

You can expect to see 20% - 30% yield increase even in drought years.

9. Reduced Erosion

The ability to drain your ground faster allows more room for water absorption during rainfall. This reduces runoff and in turn saves you from surface erosion and preserves your soil structure and fertility.

10. Lower Drying Costs

Properly drained fields allow crops to fully mature by harvest season, this reduces your drying time in the fall.
