The Burdekin has long been regarded as one of the most productive agricultural districts in Australia.  In recent years harsh climatic conditions and water shortages in other parts of the country have further highlighted the region's strengths.  Even in the face of Australia's worst drought in living memory, the mighty Burdekin remain resilient and prosperous, the reason for this can be summed up in one-word WATER!!!

That water supply includes a huge underground aquifer, the vast Burdekin and delta watercourses and the mighty Burdekin Falls Dam, which holds four times more water than the Sydney Harbour. The Burdekin's abundant, all year-round supply of good-quality water as the regions number one asset.
The districts rich supply of irrigation water combines with about 300 days of sunshine a year and fertile, well-drained soils, to make the Burdekin the most productive sugar cane growing area in Australia.
