Reliable water infrastructure is a significant investment for Queensland farmers, but it's also essential for long-term drought resilience.
Installing solar-powered bore pumps, additional water tanks, improved irrigation systems or new livestock watering infrastructure can help primary producers secure water supplies and better manage prolonged dry conditions.
Queensland's Drought Preparedness Grants offer up to $50,000, covering up to 25% of eligible on-farm infrastructure costs.
Good news for Queensland primary producers! Funding is still available, with QRIDA reporting that just under $1 million remained from the $5 million allocation for the 2026–27 financial year as at 1 November 2026.
Applications remain open until funding is fully allocated.
For Queensland primary producers planning farm infrastructure upgrades, this is a valuable opportunity to explore whether their projects qualify.
NAVIGATE Business Solutions Australia helps agricultural businesses identify relevant funding opportunities and prepare well-supported grant applications.
