Project title: Project Bluewater 2
Project type: Pesticides
Project Bluewater 2 works with sugarcane growers in the priority catchments of Plane Creek and Pioneer to improve pesticide management practices, to achieve a reduction in pesticide load entering the Great Barrier Reef. All participating growers receive a tailored pesticide management plan and expert assistance to calibrate and upgrade their pesticide application equipment. Equipment upgrades will be supported by an incentives programme. Bluewater 2 is a cooperative and interactive approach that promotes shared learning between growers, resellers, application contractors, scientists, and extension staff.
