Farms & the Land
Through smart and efficient farming practices, Victoria produces foods and wines widely regarded as some of the best in the world.
The use of high quality fresh and recycled water plays a crucial part: Produce such as cheese and butter, fruit and wine would not be available without secure and reliable irrigation.
Farmers' water supply must be reliable and secure to ensure that they can compete globally and meet Victoria's agricultural export target of $12 billion by 2010.
