Irrigation Scheme at Gowangardie Gains Ground
Mr T Gibbs of Gowangardie South pursues an irrigation plan leveraging a gully between hills to trap winter stormwater. A retaining wall, six chains wide and 12 feet high, creates a 4000 yard earthwork foundation and 6,000,000 gallons of water storage. The dam will irrigate 12 acres, supporting 26 acres of vineyard and five acres of fruit land, boosting grape and raisin quality.
