The NDSU Extension Service will conduct tile drain field demonstrations at the Big Iron Farm Show in West Fargo Sept. 13-15.
The demonstrations will include an educational program of tile drainage in this region. Each afternoon program will include educational presentations followed by an installation demonstration. There will be a tent at the edge of the field for related displays. Installation demonstrations will be conducted from 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the field directly south of the Red River Valley Fairgrounds’ racetrack.
