MID Allocation Trading Strategy
Objective
The objective of allocation trading is to:
- maximise revenue
- provide more water for production (to grow economic output for the region).
Revenue can then be directed into value adding activities for customers such as irrigation modernisation or price reductions, while the additional water will grow economic output for the region.
