Those of us in wet areas always joke, tile doesn't cost, it pays!
I put $700 an acre into a 40 3 years ago, dad already had it tiled some but not enough, but I think I got it paid back already and technically we have been on the dry side.....
I mudded around in that field, work and plant a few 100 feet every few days to chase the mud, it drowns out, it grows poor in the lows, I spend the seed, the extra fuel, the time repeating, get stuck or leave tracks wrecking crop cultivating or spraying, the corn gets shallow roots in the wet spring and then dies in the August dry when the roots are too shallow to get to moisture....
