Learning Outcomes

This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to identify and analyse common water holding licences and/or accounts that are used to access and extract irrigation water, including water attached to entitlements and/or water that is available on the temporary market. It also includes implementing water deliveries and end of season review. Irrigators may own and operate their own infrastructure (private diverters) and/or access water via infrastructure within an irrigation network. The unit applies to workers who apply knowledge and skills to access and take delivery of water onto properties for agricultural use. They monitor the environment and use judgement to access water and follow up water extraction and use. The unit applies to irrigators and other agricultural workers that operate autonomously, coordinate activities, solve predictable and unpredictable problems
