This helps support community-owned water infrastructure that brings long-term services and benefits to multiple agricultural water users to increase food production.

Eligible Expenses

Within Stream 2: Community Projects, there are nine eligible activities:

  • Rehabilitation and upgrades of (regulated and unregulated) agricultural dams and reservoirs to meet regulatory requirements.
  • Improvement, expansion or new construction of dugouts and related storage infrastructure for irrigation water and livestock watering including rangeland.
  • New construction of other water storage infrastructure.
  • Improvement, expansion or new construction of off-farm conversion of conveyance ditches to pipelines where savings of 30 to 50% can be achieved.
  • Improvement, expansion or new construction of water delivery systems to the farm gate from off-farm infrastructure and licensed intakes on streams.
