Irrigation Research and Extension Committee (IREC)

The Irrigation Research and Extension Committee (IREC) facilitates cross-industry collaboration and cooperation between all those connected with irrigated agriculture in the Murrumbidgee Valley – irrigators, researchers, industry, agencies, and government.

IREC provides a forum where the irrigator, the advisor and research scientist work as a team to both identify and direct relevant and beneficial research and extension, and address issues and policies affecting services for the region’s irrigators.

Through these collaborative efforts, IREC has made significant contributions to improving the irrigation industry’s productivity, profitability and sustainability. Active in the Murrumbidgee Valley since 1939, IREC is backed by a strong and active membership.
