Two-Stage Ditch Conservation

The benefits of a two-stage ditch over the typical agricultural ditch include improving drainage and ecological function by reducing erosion, scouring and flooding. The two-stage design improves ditch stability by spreading out and slowing down water flow and reducing the need for maintenance, saving both labor and money. If designed and installed properly, sediment cleanout from the bottom of the ditch should be much less than a typical drainage channel.
