Ernest Bontrager: Tiling a field in Rural Sullivan Illinois. Farm drainage is important for increased crop yields.

This video shows Yoder Farm Drainage installing a 10" plastic line on my dad's farm. Hitting a large rock slows the machine down. Digging with a John Deere backhoe. Backfilling with an auger machine.

Tile helps reduce erosion which helps reduce nutrients in waterways.
