Successful second harvest as part of Gloucester irrigation trial

摘要

AGL's irrigation trial in New South Wales is showing continued signs of success, with a second harvest completed. The trial, which began in March this year, produces water from deep in coal seams, which is blended with fresh water and used to irrigate crops at Gloucester. The process initially produces forage triticale - a common cereal crop - and lucerne, allowing AGL to test both perennial and annual crops.
