    The document defines a drainage system as the pattern formed by rivers, streams and lakes in a drainage basin which are governed by topography, geology and land slope. It lists advantages like preventing water accumulation and reducing soil erosion. The main disadvantage is accelerated leaching of nutrients. Drainage systems are important to ensure soil aeration, reduce nutrient loss and avoid erosion.

    ABE 1: IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE

    Name: Yr. & Sec: 1-AT-2 Date:11/10/29

    Research Work No. 5


    DRAINAGE SYSTEM
    1. Define drainage system.

    A drainage system can be defined as the pattern formed by the rivers,


    streams and lakes in a particular drainage basin. They are governed by
    the topography of the land, whether a particular region is governed by hard or
    soft rocks, and the slope of the land.

    Drainage systems, also known as river systems, are the patterns formed by
    the streams, rivers, and lakes in a particular drainage basin. They are
    governed by the topography of the land, whether a particular region is
    dominated by hard or soft rocks, and the gradient of the land

    2. Enumerate the advantages and disadvantages of a drainage system.

    Advantages of drainage system


    ● Prevents Water Accumulation. Too much accumulated water on your lawn
    can lead to flooding which can in turn kill your plants. ...
    ● Reduces Soil Erosion. Stagnant water can make soil muddy which will cause
    it to erode. ...
    ● Removes Toxic Materials. When the conditions permit, flash flooding can
    occur.
    Drainage ensures that the soil is properly aerated. If you have excess or
    standing water it can choke your crops. Drainage reduces soil and nutrient
    loss from runoff and can help avoid soil erosion. Drainage on hill slopes helps
    to reduce the risk of soil slippage.

    The main disadvantage of a drainage system can be the accelerated


    leaching out of nitrogen and other salts, causing eutrophysation or the
    increase of the salt content of streams and rivers. Usually, the disadvantages
    can be avoided by using proper irrigation methods and keeping the irrigation
    water standards.

    3. What are the importance and application of drainage system?

    The importance of Drainage system is to ensures that the soil is properly


    aerated. If you have excess or standing water it can choke your crops.
    Drainage reduces soil and nutrient loss from runoff and can help avoid soil
    erosion. And also Drainage ensures that the soil is properly aerated. If you
    have excess or standing water it can choke your crops. Drainage reduces soil
    and nutrient loss from runoff and can help avoid soil erosion. Drainage on hill
    slopes helps to reduce the risk of soil slippage.
