First Method: Water Harvesting (0:00-09:46) and (10:50-13:40)

Second Method: The Keyline Plan (09:47-10:49)

Two methods of farm water management which have received much publicity and which have been advocated as being applicable under a wide variety of conditions and purposes.

The first of these, known as Water Harvesting, has been developed by Mr H J Geddes at the Sydney University McGarvie-Smith Animal Husbandry Farm at Badgery's Creek, near Liverpool in New South Wales.

The second, known as The Keyline Plan, has been developed by Mr P A Yeomans on his properties at North Richmond, New South Wales, and other places.
