Ag drains manage water in the soil rather than on the surface. The slotted pipe sits in a gravel-filled trench, usually wrapped in geotextile fabric, intercepting seepage and carrying it to a stormwater outlet.
They are essential behind retaining walls, where trapped water pressure is the leading cause of wall failure. Fine soil eventually clogs poorly wrapped systems — ag drains have a service life, not a forever guarantee.
