Farmers Say Projects Are Payoffs for Drainage

Idaho farmers describe success with soil conservation practices. Lester Munk reports cross ditching reduces erosion and saves water in Liberty Bear Lake district. Tyhee farmer Louis Bringhurst notes spoil-bank leveling boosted irrigation efficiency and grain to 65 70 bushels per acre. Franklin county cooperators credit maps surveys and 6 inch tile drainage costing about 50 dollars per acre for the 80 acre tract, expecting full payback within three years.
