Macalister Irrigation District
The Southern Rural Water Exchange is a pilot online trade platform available for the trade of allocation and water shares in the Macalister Irrigation District.
The platform developed in partnership with Water Partners has been designed to provide users with access, tools and visibility to contribute to the efficient use of the water resources in the region. The platform will also serve as a host for water auctions.
We’re working on expanding the platform to all customer groups in the future. In the meantime, if you’re not a Macalister Irrigation District customer, please use one of the below Facebook groups.
