The responsiveness of Australian farm performance to changes in irrigation water use & trade (pdf 180kb)

This study assesses the links between farm performance and water use practices, involvement in water trading and other farm characteristics.

The performance of Australia's agricultural industries is inextricably linked to regional agronomic and seasonal conditions, and to developments in the markets for both agricultural commodities and key inputs such as labour and irrigation water supplies. There are graphs and statistics provided to support the study findings.
