Overview
Horticulture farms in the Murray-Darling Basin presents key farm performance measures for irrigated horticulture growing farms in the Basin, including data on water trading and use of irrigation technologies, with an emphasis on results from 2013-14 to 2015-16.

ABARES has conducted surveys of irrigation farms in selected industries and regions in the Murray-Darling Basin since 2006-07. The survey was funded by the Murray-Darling Basin Authority and the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources.

This report focuses on citrus, pome fruit and stone fruit growing farms in the southern Murray-Darling Basin. The Basin accounts for about three-quarters of Australia's citrus, pome fruit and stone fruit production with a large percentage of these crops grown in the southern Basin.
