Economic performance and system water-use-efficiency of farming systems locations
Aims

Can systems performance be improved by modifying farming systems in the northern grains region?

What is the impact on system WUE ($ gross margin return per mm of system water use)?

Key messages

1. Differences of $204-670/year were found between systems across sites.
2. Cropping intensity is the major factor driving good/poor economic performance.
3. A system water use efficiency of $2.50 of crop income/mm of rainfall over the cropping sequence is achievable and could be used to benchmark current farming systems.
