Listen "Managed investment scheme"
Episode Synopsis
The scarcity of water in many catchments has brought old resentments bubbling to the surface between managed investment schemes and family farms, who accuse the corporates of not being true horticulturalists, receive too many tax concessions, and buying up water that should be left to the environment. One company, Timbercorp, responds by acknowledging they've made mistakes in their community relations in the past, but there are some good things about their soil and water management that smaller irrigators could learn from.
