discharge quality. Water take and discharge rates are now being telemetered to the Council, but a review of
the placement of the flowmeters is still required. The groundwater monitoring bores have been installed

under review, there was a higher nitrogen load applied to the paddocks than in the 2017-2020 years. The
nitrogen application rates increased by about 14% on Farm 1 and 20% on Farms 2 and 3 in the 2019-2020
year, with further increases of 10% on Farm 1, 4% on Farm 2, and 18% on Farm 3 during the year under
