A broad-based bank is an earth embankment with an upslope channel that is constructed on a grade. It is designed to intercept run-off from sloping land and divert the water into a farm dam or waterway. This Farmnote covers the purposes, uses and workings of broad based banks, as well as planning for banks, design considerations, construction, maintenance, legal considerations in Western Australia, impacts and risks.
