E Irrigation 1 IRRIGATION PRACTICES IN THE QUEENSLAND SUGAR INDUSTRY K. C. Leverington bureau of Sugar Experiment Stations Brisbane, Australia ABSTRACT The systems of irrigation used in the Queensland sugar industry are out- lined, and current research programmes are mentioned. It is pointed out that stability of production in areas of variable rainfall is a major factor con- tributing to the expansion of irrigation in Queensland. Water usage has fre- quently been wasteful in the past, but due to diminishing reserves of surface and underground water farmers are becoming more aware of the necessity for increasing irrigation efficiency. INTRODUCTION The production of sugar in Queensland is highly organized and coil- trolled, both at the farm and mill levels, by quotas which are renewed from time to time according to requirements for home consumption and export mar- kets. While there is no guarantee that cane grown in excess of an individual farm quota will be accepted for milling, frequently due to shortfalIs, over quota cane is milled.
