Subject: Irrigating precision leveled land from center well


NE Ark.
I have a 40ac field with a pretty new well in the center, currently attached to a pivot.

If I wanted to get away from the pivot by precision leveling the field, but keeping the well, how would that work in practice?

For example can polypipe handle 1/8 mile uphill (e.g 0.2% grade) then go to a tee and across the top of the field? That would be the worse-case scenario.

Is it an issue if the well head is higher than the surrounding land?

I know the ideal is to not have the well in the center of the field, but it is what it is and we invested too much to change it now.

Thanks! Andy
