In this podcast we hear from St George growers Craig Saunders and Lucas Wuersching about their experience with (automated) bankless channel irrigation with tailwater backup. Craig and Lucas talk about the benefits in water savings and labour as well what they hope to learn from a trial with CottonInfo in the 21/22 growing season.
This trial is assessing the efficiency of the system. This work is funded by the Cotton Research and Development Corporation and Smarter Irrigation for Profit Phase 2 (through the Australian Government Rural R&D for Profit Program), and supported by Padman Stops, CottonInfo Team, Gwydir Valley Irrigators, NSW DPI, University of Southern Queensland and Glenn Lyons.
