Question: 1 4 . 7 Compute the drain spacing for a clay loam soil having a drainable porosity of 0 . 0 6 m 3 m

14.7 Compute the drain spacing for a clay loam soil having a drainable porosity of
0.06m3m3, a hydraulic conductivity of 0.6md, and an impermeable layer
2.4m below the drains. Drainage requirements for the crop are such that the ini-
tial water table depth below the surface is 0.15m, with a rate of drop of 0.21m
for the first day. Because of outlet depth, the maximum depth of the drain is lim-
ited to 1.2m measured to the bottom of the 125-mm drains.
