Irrigation System, Surface, is a system that delivers irrigation water by surface means, such as furrows, borders, and contour levees. This video explores how Brian Roundy implemented this practice in Richfield, Utah. Practice benefits:
• Improves irrigation efficiency
• Increases labor savings
• Decreases ponding
• Reduces runoff
• Improves crop yields
The Conservation at Work video series was created to increase producer awareness of common conservation practices and was filmed at various locations throughout the country. Because conservation plans are specific to the unique resource needs on each farm and also soil type, weather conditions, etc., these videos were designed to serve as a general guide to the benefits of soil and water conservation and landowners should contact their local USDA office for individual consultation.
