We are the collective advocacy and lobbying body representing Lachlan Valley irrigators, ensuring your needs and concerns are heard at all levels of government, as well as in the media.

Irrigated agriculture may be last in line to access water, but it is first in delivering essential food and fibre that supports Australian households and industries. Your work is vital to our nation’s food security and economy, and we’re here to ensure your contributions are recognised and supported at every level.

Your membership directly supports the vital work we do on your behalf. From attending critical consultations and lobbying for fairer water management policies to addressing local infrastructure needs, we are here to achieve better outcomes for you and your community.

Where water connects us all

Beyond its practical uses, the Lachlan River enriches the community in countless ways. It’s a hub for tourism and recreational activities, and holds deep cultural significance for local First Nations peoples, who have relied on its waters for millennia as part of their cultural practices and traditions.

As the heart of the Lachlan Valley, this river connects the land, its people, and its industries – serving as a vital resource for today and generations to come.
