Drainage After Harvest or In Rainy Season
Drainage of flooded banks or drainage of extremely wet soil during the rainy season may be done by ditches. Drainage by ditches may be done with crops that require the soil to be wet but not completely saturated (and sometimes, especially not at certain times of year). An example is blueberries. In the rainy season/winter, they require drier soil.

Famous quotes containing the words harvest, rainy and/or season:
“The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
“Do not, on a rainy day, ask your child what he feels like doing, because I assure you that what he feels like doing, you won’t feel like watching.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)
“Much poetry seems to be aware of its situation in time and of its relation to the metronome, the clock, and the calendar. ... The season or month is there to be felt; the day is there to be seized. Poems beginning “When” are much more numerous than those beginning “Where” of “If.” As the meter is running, the recurrent message tapped out by the passing of measured time is mortality.”
—William Harmon (b. 1938)
