WHETHER YOU ARE ADDING A FEW PLANTS OR REPLANTING YOUR WHOLE GARDEN BY INCORPORATING WATERWISE GARDEN DESIGNS YOU WILL HELP YOUR GARDEN BECOMEWATERWISE, BEAUTIFUL AND REQUIRE LESS MAINTENANCE

SOME TIPS FOR YOUR WATERWISE GARDEN: Group plants which require similar amounts of water - creating watering zones. This will avoid over watering some while under watering others.

Choose low water use plants which are appropriate for the soil conditions and are suited to your local area. Your local nursery will be able to give you advice on what would be suitable for your garden.

Understand the site - where and when is shade created? Where is there exposure to wind? This will help you select and position plants to

Improve soil conditions to retain more moisture in the soil by adding organic material such as composts and soil conditioners. Leave lower branches on trees and shrubs and allow leaf litter to accumulate on the soil. This keeps the soil cooler and reduces evaporation.

Keep your garden free of weeds. Weeds harbour pests and diseases,

BE WATERWISE IN THE LAUNDRY The laundry is a place where you not only use a lot of water but you also use energy and detergents.

YOU CAN SAVE MONEY, ENERGY AND WATER BY USING A MORE EFFICIENT WASHING MACHINE!

SELECT THE RIGHT WASHING MACHINEIf you are buying a new washing machine, choose a water

less to purchase than front loading washing machines,

CONNECT YOUR RAINWATER TANK TO THE WASHING MACHINE:Tanks plumbed to the laundry can be used effectively during periods of high rainfall when you don’t need to water your garden. By connecting a tank to the washing machine with a switching pump you can use your tanks all year round. When tank water is available, the pump uses it and automatically switches to mains water when the tank is empty. A rebate for connecting your rainwater tank to your washing machine may be available in your area, check with your local council.

WATERWISE IN THE BATHROOMTips to save water in the bathroom:

• Take a short shower instead of a bath. While soothing and luxurious, baths are a source of high water usage. A single

• Fix any leaking taps, toilets or basins.

WATERWISE IN THE KITCHENTips for saving water in the Kitchen:• Hand rinse dishes in a sink full of water rather than

running water. This saves wasting all that water that would otherwise run down your sink.

• Rinse vegetables in a bowl then use the left over water on your garden.

• Use a dishwasher that has a high

“Using the Combination Tank & Trough system has given us great results with the Cell Grazing setup at our farm. We are able to service 4 paddocks with each system, which is far less hassle than all individual pipe-work and troughs to each paddock. The Combination Tank & Troughs were a great choice for us as they were pre-plumbed ready-to-go which offered an easy installation. They are also very safe for stock as it is all in one unit with a large backup supply of water at the trough and high flow rates for large numbers of stock”. “INVERLEIGH”

LIVESTOCK WATERING

In the past, livestock were turned out to pasture and allowed to walk through and drink from any water source. This included any dam, creek, river or waterway available to them.

Today, this has become a concern for water users, livestock producers and government environmental departments. This practice has created problems to both the water sources and the livestock.

Livestock producers, like other water users, wish to play a role in protecting water sources from environmental damage and to maintain a healthy herd.

• Water source protection and longevity• Improved herd health and comfort• Increased livestock production• Wider pasture utilisation• Riparian protection

& Troughs. They have allowed my stock to get a far better supply of water – my stock can get a quick drink and the water is actually cooler. I have noticed that my cattle actually look better than they did before, which is important for my stud operation.

DID YOU KNOW? RAPID PLAS FAST FACTS Why supplement feed your cattle

Early in a drought there is usually plenty of poor quality dry feed, which animals cannot use efficiently. Supplementary feeding at this stage aims to make better use of this feed by supplying those nutrients that the pasture is deficient in, so that animals can be cheaply maintained while decisions are being made.

MOREPRODUCTSSee page 68 for molasses tanks

MOREPRODUCTSSee page 57 for dry supplement feeding

DID YOU KNOW? RAPID PLAS FAST FACTS Why feed molasses based supplements

and mineral supplements. The benefits of feeding molasses have been quantified by many research trials and allows cattle to utilise available paddock feed more efficiently.

Cattle grazing on low protein, poor quality standover roughages such as mature pastures, summer forage crops and cereal stubbles can benefit from being fed a protein supplement using a Rapid Plas Supplement Feeder such as the Licker Wheel Feeder or Licker Drum. This enables stock to: • Digest dry fibrous feed more efficiently • Increase their appetite and nutrient intake • Graze more widely

Rapid Plas Supplement Feeders provide an efficient method of feeding mineral supplements to cattle. Ask the Rapid Plas team about how a Supplement Feeder can keep condition on your stock.
