"Member for Braddon Bryan Green said today the development of major water infrastructure for irrigation was vital for Tasmania’s primary industries.
Mr Green who played a leading role in the establishment of the Meander Dam said future growth of the agricultural sector would be underpinned by the State’s water resources.
Mr Green said a $220 million irrigation program jointly funded by State and Federal Governments aimed to provide additional water equivalent to that from 10 Meander dams. "
