Welcome to the WaterSmart Dams Podcast, where we dive into the world of water management for sustainable agriculture. Brought to you by Icon Agriculture and Compass Agricultural Alliance this series is hosted by Lavinia Wehr, with special insights from Shane from Darkan Earthmoving. Brought to you by Agsocial, who handled all editing and production, this series is dedicated to sharing practical tips, expert advice, and innovative techniques for #WaterSmart farming.
In Episode 4, we turn our focus to roaded catchments. These systems are crucial for slowing down and directing water flow effectively. We’ll break down how to construct roaded catchments and silt traps that work harmoniously to maximise water capture and minimise waste.
