Synergies has developed a national model for forecasting agricultural water demand across industries and jurisdictions. The model, which has been developed based on contemporary data sources and our team’s extensive knowledge and experience derived from working in the agriculture and rural water sectors, incorporates all key supply and demand-side factors to derive long-term water demand forecasts down to the specific commodity and sub-region.
The article below provides further information on the modelling methodology and an overview of a recent application of the model to forecast water demand in the Lockyer Valley out to 2050.
