Abstract

Controlled drainage (CD) has been identified as a sustainable management practice whereby more soil water can be conserved and less nutrients are leached; alongside its potential benefit of alleviating drought stress and increasing yield. More than 12 million hectare of cropland in the US Midwest are suitable for implementing CD; however, the effectiveness of the practice can vary across the region with the variation in environmental conditions and management practices. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the integrated agro-ecosystem model; DRAINMOD-DSSAT, for simulating the effects of CD on drainage flow, nitrogen losses via drainage water and crop yield.
