Transforming Drainage is a 5-year, 8-state project led by a core group of 15 leading agricultural engineers, soil scientists, agronomists, economists, social scientists, and database and GIS specialists with a common vision — to transform the way drainage is implemented across the agricultural landscape.
Transforming Drainage is a collaborative field research and synthesis effort that brings together historic and current agronomic, hydrologic, and climate data from across the Corn Belt. This project created a multi-state database to provide the foundation for new decision support tools to guide the implementation of drainage water storage practices. It also will fuel Extension and educational efforts that will bring about greater awareness and understanding among drainage professionals, agricultural engineers, and producers of agricultural water sustainability.
