Irrigation: The main irrigation comprises 2 x 15 hectare circle sites sown to high performing perennial grass and clover pastures utilised for hay, silage and intensive grazing.
Water is supplied from the confined aquifer. This water is at approximately 13 to 15 PSI at ground level. The water is pump assisted to the pivot sites and four hydrant sites which have been previously utilised for travelling irrigator. This is carried out very efficiently due to the natural pressure. This pump is electric while the pivot is hydraulic utilising a small diesel auxiliary power pack.
A second site is equipped with a diesel motor and centrifugal pump being designed for travelling irrigator or set sprinklers and drawing from the unconfined aquifer.
A third irrigation site has a 10 unequipped irrigation bore.
The irrigation delivers excellent income diversification, additional carrying capacity and drought proofing.
