You: What are the benefits of tiling?
Us: So glad you asked. For starters, tiling will produce higher yields by 30% on average. This is because proper subsurface field drainage regulates water to the crop. It's science.

Brandon Lee Simpson Dustin Dettman and a few others were VERY close but failed to like and share! Thanks everyone for playing!!

We are proud that our tile manufacturers uses recycled materials to make a quality product! Others tout about using all virgin resins, when you can make a terrific product while still helping the environment, why wouldn’t you?

Sustainability doesn’t come by accident. We’re proud to recycle at a scale that is truly making a difference.

Reason 7: Healthier Roots- Tiling lowers the water table, which enables root systems to seek deeper moisture. This creates air and water channels that promote better root growth and soil pe*******on, even in drought years.

Reason 8: Superior Soil Structure- Adequately tiled land promotes soil health and creates porous soil that allows more air and water to reach the plant’s roots, crucial for healthy plant growth.

Trying to keep a smile on our face while we wait for spring work to begin. 😁

We had this sent to us a month or so ago from the owner/operator and thought it was to cool not to share. This is a 1/4 section north of Hobarton we tiled 60 acres of 2 years ago. The whole 1/4 was farmed the exact same way(tillage, seed, fertility ect.). The picture was taken of this years yield map before it was completely harvested, but, you can get a pretty good idea what tile can do! 40 Bushel an acre better!

We tiled this 300 acres a few weeks ago, whoever can guess closest to the actual footage we installed gets a FREE REI sweatshirt and knife! Let the games begin!!!

Put in 1,500 ft of 12” flex core this muddy afternoon (flexible dual wall pipe), pretty cool product! Saves a ton on installation cost and valuable time (especially this spring!!)

Can tile weatherproof your farm?

Spend limited working capital to kick-start yield on poorly drained soils.
