Product Information
In 1995 the Land and Water Resources Research and Development Corporation funded the two-year project ‘Increasing Irrigation Efficiencies in the Australian Sugar Industry’.
The main aim of the project was to develop a model for the adoption of improved irrigation practices using grower focus groups and participatory interaction. Since the Burdekin district of north Queensland is the largest single area of sugarcane that is furrow irrigated in Australia, the project was focussed on that district.
