Form 6-F Instructions: Inspection, Monitoring, Management, and Repair of
Subsurface Tile Drainage.
1. If you have no fields that are tile drained, mark the box at the top of the form.
1. For all tile-drained fields that will receive manure applications, record the inspection
results on Form 6-F. Record monitoring results as applicable. Example: Your plan
indicates that you will monitor tile flow in row crop fields by sampling during or
immediately after manure application. You perform the sampling and record the
laboratory analyses on the form under “monitoring results.”
ORGANIZATION TIPS:

 Place this information in the producer manual in the section called Periodic Access
and Data Entries (Yearly Update)—level three of the Pyramid.

 Update this section when changes occur; do not wait until your annual plan update.
HINT: You will find that as you put together your plan and accumulate multiple pieces of paper about
each field, that it will be easier to use, explain, and understand a given field’s information if all of the
information about each field is packaged together. This allows you, an employee, custom applicator, or
whomever to look at the whole package for any given field. This is important, as much of the work with
managing manure is done on a per field basis.
