Change your irrigation system

Once the "easy savings" have been made, it might be time to consider upgrading your irrigation system.

Irrigation systems that offer better water efficiency include:
  • Drip and Trickle irrigation; and
  • Central Pivot and Lateral Move machines

More information on these systems can be found in WATERpak.

In addition, reducing water use can:
  • Decrease labour costs (many systems are automated now); and
  • Increase production.
