WE’RE Celebrating EXCELLENCE
The Zimmatic Trailblazer Sustainable Irrigation Awards exist to acknowledge the world-class leadership farmers demonstrate with water management. The Trailblazer Awards celebrate excellence and provide a platform to share the stories of farmers who are leading the way in responsible irrigation, innovative water management and environmental stewardship.
The Awards are held biannually, alternating between Australia and New Zealand, and are back in Australia this year!
The Trailblazer Irrigation Study Tour was introduced following farmer feedback, offering valuable international networking and learning opportunities, and an amazing experience. These tours run between the Award years, with the next tour departing in 2027. Click here for more information.
Boost Your Irrigation Knowledge and Maximize Efficiency
The Trailblazer Sustainable Irrigation Awards are about more than recognising excellence — they're about sharing knowledge to improve sustainable irrigation.
To support this, we offer engaging, hands-on workshops designed to equip farmers, growers and industry organisations with practical knowledge and tools to improve irrigation performance.
If you're interested in hosting a workshop or learning more, contact the Trailblazer Awards team for more information.
CELEBRATE OUR FARMERS SUCCESS STORIES
On a daily basis we work with farmers demonstrating world-class practice in water management. Trailblazer gives us the opportunity to tell these stories to the wider audience with our winners’ stories profiled through local and international media.
