Lake Argyle is the largest artificial lake in Australia. It was made as a part of the Ord River Irrigation Scheme.
Open channel gravity system. The water is diverted from river Nayndo by means of a diversion weir and conveyed to the head of farm fields via gravity open channel
The Snowy Mountains Hydro Electric Scheme is a hydroelectricity and irrigation complex in south-east Australia, in the Australian Alps between Victoria and New South Wales. It is considered to be one of the wonders of the engineering world. The Scheme involves sixteen dams, seven power stations, a pumping station and over 225 km of tunnels, pipelines and aqueducts. The Snowy Mountains scheme generates electricity and redistributes water to the Murray River, where it is used for farming and irrigation.

The Snowy Mountains scheme generates electricity and redistributes water to the Murray River, where it is used for farming and irrigation. The total electricity capability is up to about 3700 MW, which works out to roughly 10% of the needs of New South Wales, though this depends on having enough rainfall and melting snow. The Snowy Mountains Hydro Electric Scheme was built between 1949 and 1975.
Australia's Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Scheme was a massive undertaking to redirect the waters of the Snowy Rver and the winter thaw of the Snowy Mountains for more efficient use both in hydroelectricity and for irrigation. Farmers were and are affected differently, according to their location. Initially, the scheme was seen as bad for the property owners in the area. Many farmers lost their livelihood, as stock animals (cattle, horses, etc) were no longer permitted to be grazed in the High Country. However, the Scheme brought many advantages for farmers. It generates electricity and redistributes water to the Murray River, where it is used for farming and irrigation, so farmers downstream are greatly benefitted.
