Reduce Crop Loss Risk
With today’s high input cost, the farmer today must reduce the risk of crop loss. According to research experts, the number one factor that affects crop yield is drainage. Drainage can increase crop production up to 50% verses farms without it. An increase in crop production means an increase in revenue. When soil is tiled, the improved drainage creates a deeper plant root zone. Simply by forcing the plants to have more developed roots, the plants then can more effectively absorb more nutrients and water.
