COLUMBIA, Mo., Aug. 25 -- The University of Missouri College of Food & Natural Resources issued the following news release:
Research from University of Missouri Extension finds that subsurface irrigation as part of an integrated drainage water management system boosts corn yields by more than 40 bushels per acre and up to 14 bushels per acre for soybean on poorly drained flat soils. Further research is evaluating subsurface drip irrigation on soils with greater slopes.
