Amherst WI | I'm going to speak about what happens in this neighborhood.
Very little tile here, but there is some potholes that seem to hold water.
The pot holes that hold water "here" is because there is a infiltration problem uphill from it. These wet holes are often 60+ feet above the water table but yet often have water in them. Farmers work the ground 3-5 times a year until it is flour and then nothing can run it, so it goes to the low spot where it sits and compacts that area.
The solution that never works is rip the low spot and continue to pound the heck out of it uphill ending in the same result on an annual basis.
I don't know where the soils part of high school ag class missed how soil is supposed to function, but the majority don't understand it and won't listen when told how it works.

Tiling through dried up pot holes. How effective?
