The Federal and New South Wales coalition governments have announced it would deliver $12 million in Federal rebates.

New and upgraded on-farm infrastructure for the scheme could be applied to new purchases and installation of pipes, water storages and water pumps, de-silting dams, and associated power supplies such as generators.

The rebate is to help NSW farmers improve drought resilience and make farmers more productive after the drought breaks.
