Boreholes Farming Note

Water usage on dairy farms is considerably higher than that associated with other livestock enterprises. A typical 150 cow herd, averaging 7,500 litres of milk uses approximately 6 million litres of water a year. Installation of a borehole can reduce water costs by up to 80%.

This Farming Note covers:

  • Comparing your annual water consumption
  • Considerations when installing a borehole
  • Water quality of boreholes
  • Legal requirements

Issued November 2007.
