Turning Lakebed Soil into Fertile Land
When lakebed soil is left untreated, it retains excess moisture and lacks oxygen,
giving it a bluish-gray color.
To make this soil suitable for farming, it was
necessary to ensure that agricultural machinery could operate on it and to improve its drainage and aeration.
The first step was to drain and dry out the soil.
Then, various soil amendments were made, such as removing excess salts and spreading lime to neutralize its acidity.
As a result, the fertile land we have today was created.
Subsurface Drainage Pipe Cross Section Model
This is a model that shows the condition underground.
The subsurface drainage pipe absorbs water, and the bottom soil above it begins to dry out.
