  • Border Rivers Community Profile: Irrigation Region
    Border Rivers community profile Irrigation region Key issues for the region 1. Region’s population — the population of the Border Rivers region is approximately 49,646, and the ABS records around 570 irrigating agricultural businesses. 2. Gross value of irrigated agricultural production ­­— the drought affected gross value of irrigated agricultural production for 2006 in the Border Rivers was $350million. 3. Water entitlements (approximate) • Surface Water Long-term Cap (long-term average annual extraction volume) 399 GL, to be shared between NSW and Queensland. • High Security — 1 GL (NSW). • General Security 265 GL (NSW). • Supplementary licences 120 GL (NSW). • Groundwater entitlements — nominal volume 7 GL (Queensland). • Surface water entitlements upper reaches (unsupplemented) — nominal volume 21 GL (Queensland). • Surface water entitlements in the lower reaches (supplemented) nominal volume 102 GL (Queensland). • Surface water entitlements in the lower reaches (unsupplemented) — nominal volume 210 GL (Queensland). 4. Major enterprises — broadacre furrow irrigation, principally cotton, is the major irrigated enterprise, with cereal crops, fodder crops, fruit and vegetables also grown in different parts of the catchment. 5. Government Buyback — the Commonwealth Government’s buyback in the region has been 7 GL so far. 6. Water dependence — The Border Rivers is highly dependent on water, because agriculture, particularly irrigated agriculture, is a major driver in the economies of Goondiwindi, Stanthorpe and several smaller towns. 7. Current status • The Border Rivers is an agricultural region with several large towns, notably Inverell, Glen Innes, Goondiwindi, Stanthorpe and Tenterfield, with relatively diverse economies. Of these, Goondiwindi and Stanthorpe are more irrigation dependent towns likely to be affected significantly by any move to lower sustainable diversion limits.
