The use of laser leveled tile in areas that need drainage has increased in
northwest Missouri. On Monday, November 19, there will be a tiling
demonstration starting at 1PM and concluding at 3PM. The field day will be held
on Highway 159 in Holt County east of Big Lake approximately 4 miles. In case
of rain, the meeting will be moved to the following Monday, November 26th at the same time.
Dr. Kelly Nelson, University of Missouri Researcher, will provide research
data on how tile can be used in a drainage and irrigation methods. Also, the
contractor will be on-site installing the tile and tile is donated by a local
vendor.
During the installation process, there will be two sets of drainage spacing
in two different soil types providing long-term yield data.
