Optimising farm scale returns from irrigated grains: maximising dollar return per megalitre of water

This investment will assist growers and advisers to make informed decisions that maximise the economic return per megalitre of water from irrigating crops. It will generate an economic sensitivity analysis to quantify the economic impact of changes in water, commodity and input price and irrigation method at the whole farm scale, allowing growers to evaluate cost:benefit scenarios.
