Just Add Water

[agstar77]

Very interesting documentary on CBC Radio. Irrigation in Australia.

A CBC "documentary" on water should be taken with a generous pinch of salt. I didn't listen to their story, but I can imagine what it was. Complete with lots of 'experts' to back up the story they want to tell. Their sensationalism and biases make them a combination National Enquirer/Pravda.

They also predicted - maybe still are - mass starvation and world-wide proverty because of bio-fuels.

People with the real knowledge don't waste their time on the CBC.

I worked on a farm one winter near Griffith NSW dry land 10,000 acres they barely made a living. On the irrigated land growing anything from rice to fruit trees some of them 10,000 acre farms had some major operations going.

Hey, you're so right stubble. So is an open market!
