Specialty Drainage in Hancock, WI

May 2009

Like many cranberry farmers, Horizon Cranberry Farms, LLC saw the importance of maintaining control in their water management. They recognized that the installation of bog tiling would aid in maintaining moisture levels during the growing season, reduce the water needed during flooding and allow for the removal of water once harvest was complete. With plans in hand for a system designed by Applied Science, Ellingson was used to deploy the plan through to project completion. Ellingson’s proprietary equipment was designed specifically to handle this sort of application – and the result was a pattern drainage water management system that provided precise control over the water table during the season and quick drainage of the bed after the harvest.
