Minnesota Drainage Program - Waseca
The event will feature two sessions focused on agricultural drainage.
The morning session will discuss precision drainage and how farmers can design field drainage systems to improve crop production through uniform drainage and water table management. A drainage contractor will discuss the design and installation of precision drainage systems.
The afternoon session will focus on local coordination for drainage improvement projects. A speaker from the Red River Basin will explain the coordination principles developed decades ago to address regional flooding concerns.
