When soils are saturated or waterlogged, water will flow over the surface moving sediment and nutrients into our waterbodies. The function of a main drainage system is to collect, transport and dispose of water collected from the field drainage system through an outlet. Appropriately designed and constructed land drainage will lead to improved nutrient uptake by the plant and can lower losses of nutrient and sediment to watercourses. In this clip, Meabh O'Hagan and Niall McLoughlin, Lakeland Dairies go through some steps you can take to minimise sediment and nutrient losses when carrying out drain maintenance.
