Demo -Day explains
drainage benefits
The 1986 Demo -Day takes a new
direction on July 16 this year when
examples of erosion control struc-
tures will be constructed by OMAF
qualified contractors.
Demo -Day '86 is sponsored by
the Ontario Farm Drainage
Association and is endorsed by the
Ontario Soil and Crop Improve-
ment Association. With the sup-
port from these two groups and in-
terest in erosion control and better
soil management, a large crowd is
expected. Earlier Demo -Days were
held at Watford (1984), Win-
chester (1982), and Shedden
(1980).
The demonstration will include
the installation of drainage tile and
tubing on 20 acres of farmland at
Ross Enterprises in Maryborough
Township near Teviotdale. Static
displays will exhibit erosion con-
trol materials, drainage materials,
and examples of conservation
tillage equipment recommended
for reduced tillage practices.
More than 15 of the most ad-
vanced drainage machines will in-
stall 19,000 feet of pipe. Contrac-
tors will demonstrate construction
of such structures as outlet protec-
tion devices, drop -structures, and
stream bank protection. There will
also be explanations of all items
that are covered in the OSCEPAP
grant scheme (Ontario Soil Con-
servation and Environmental Pro-
tection Assistance Program).
The contractor in charge of all
the drainage and erosion control
construction is B & E Marquardt
Tiling Contractors, of Moorefield,
Ontario.
In total, visitors to the one day
event will see the advantages of a
"total system approach" to soil
and water conservation and
management. The benefits of
systematic farm drainage, and in-
tegrated tillage and soil manage-
ment systems will be presented by
key industry and OMAF personnel
at each demonstration and exhibit.
