$200.00
Courses Included
For centuries landowners have been building ponds for livestock water, aquaculture, irrigation and recreation. More than 2 million ponds had been built in the United States by land users on privately owned land. More will be needed in the future.
The demand for water increased in recent years, and ponds are one of the most reliable and economical sources of water. Ponds are now serving a variety of purposes, including water for livestock, irrigation, fish production, field and orchard spraying, fire protection, energy conservation, wildlife habitat, recreation, erosion control, and landscape improvement.
This course introduces the two main types of dams, embankment and excavated, and some of the design and construction considerations for the various planned uses.
