Effect of water table control and subirrigation on nitrate loss and corn yields / H.Y.F. Ng, C.S. Tan, C.F. Drury, J.D. Gaynor, and I.J. Wesenbeeck.: En13-5/98-42E-PDF

"This work reported results on an on-farm study on the influence of water table controls and subirrigation on nitrate concentration in the tile drainage, soil water and on plant transpiration dynamics. The results showed that water table control and subirrigation is technological advancement in soil and water management. These methods enable farmers to reduce nitrate contamination of drainage water and to minimize the effect of dry period on crop growth. These methods should be useful for agricultural water management practices"--Management perspective.
