On the farm with Jess & Steven Knight - Showcasing Gippsland's innovative irrigators
Dairy farmers Jess and Steven Knight took part in the Sustainable Irrigation Program Demonstration Trials, a two-year project aimed at showcasing the benefits of irrigation technology using real-life examples from local farms.
After modernising their irrigation infrastructure with an automated effluent distribution system, the Knights used the grant funding to measure the impact the system was having on soil health so they could make better decisions about where and when to apply effluent.
Watch the video to learn more about how the irrigation technology has benefited their farm and surrounding environment.
