Evaporation water losses from irrigation channels are an important component of total irrigation system losses and could be as much as 12% in the Goulburn Murray channel network.

This power point presentation looks at using land for both cotton and grains to take advantage of land resources and moisture reserves can mean economic and water use efficiency gains.
