As reported by Ahmad et al.(1990) a tile drainage was installed in an area of about 11 acres which went out of cultivation due to water logging and soil salinization. The objective of the installation was to study the feasibility of manually placed tile drainage systems at farm level to control watertable at a level where crops are able to effectively use water from the watertable and to reuse drainage flow for crop production. The hydraulic performance of the system was evaluated by using Hooghoudt's equation. The average "q/k" ratio determined as 0.0122 matched with the design ratio of 0.012. This shows the similarity between observed and predicted watertable depths. The quality of drainage water has also improved considerably. The system has effectively controlled the watertable at the desired depth and farmers are cultivating the previously abandoned area successfully. The system has also controlled soil salinity, increased land value and land productivity. Analysis indicates that estimated benefits from this system are lower than project costs. However, the project is economically feasible if surplus water from drainage system could be used to irrigate extra acreage instead of diverting it down a drain.
