Abstract

Drained lands, which include some of the most productive lands in the world, can experience both water excess and water deficit within a year. Storing drained water within the landscape could increase the sustainability of water for agriculture, particularly as intense rainfall and prolonged summer drought continue to increase under future climate change. A team of researchers and extension specialists from nine states are currently working towards a vision of transforming the process of designing and implementing agricultural drainage to include storage through the use of controlled drainage, saturated buffers, and drainage water recycling (i.e. capture, storage, and reuse). Field research data from experimental drainage sites from across the U.S. Corn Belt have been brought together in a database to support synthesis and modeling to determine economic and environmental impacts of drainage water storage. Results from this effort will extend the strategies and tools to agricultural producers, the drainage industry, watershed managers, agencies, and policy makers, and educate the next generation of engineers and scientists to design drainage systems that include water storage in the landscape.

Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
A multi-state effort funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture-National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA-NIFA), Agriculture and Food Research Initiative is coordinating efforts to evaluate and extend the practice of capturing and storing tile drain water (drainage water storage) in agricultural landscapes. The project, called Managing Water for Increased Resiliency of Drained Agricultural Landscapes, is also known as Transforming Drainage (http://transformingdrainage.org). This paper reviews opportunities for drainage water storage, describes field research locations where practices are being evaluated, and outlines the network of researchers and extension specialists working together to advance drainage water storage.
