Feb 11, 2026: CANCID Webinar: Controlled Drainage Effects on Water Quality
Heure : 11 février 2025 - 12 h 00 (heure des Rocheuses)
Speaker: Dr Ehsan Ghane, Associate Prof at Michigan State University
Topic: Controlled Drainage Effects on Water Quality
Description :
Join this webinar to learn how controlled drainage can influence water movement and nutrient losses from subsurface‑drained fields. We’ll discuss how adjusting drainage outlet elevation affects conditions in the soil, how those changes influence nitrogen and phosphorus behavior, and what this means for water quality. Participants will see how different management strategies—ranging from moderate to more stringent control—alter both nutrient concentrations and the total amount of nutrients leaving a field. The session will highlight practical takeaways for producers, conservation staff, and advisors interested in reducing nutrient losses while maintaining crop productivity, and will offer guidance on when controlled drainage is most likely to provide meaningful water‑quality benefits
