This project assisted members of the Dawson Valley Cotton Growers to attend AgTECH CH17 on Wednesday 8th November 2017, stay over in Emerald for the evening to then participate in the CHCGI organised field day the following day. The aim of AgTECH was to gain exposure to the future of technology in farming and irrigation. The field day that was held on the following day allowed growers to visit on farm and see irrigation solutions that have been implemented on farm. Growers reluctance to adopt new technologies could be overcome by visiting early adopters and listening to their first hand practical experience of irrigation innovations.
