Profile

Waterwright Solutions is a privately owned company that is based in North Queensland. Our work is predominantly based in this region however we have many customers interstate and Australia wide that we work with remotely or on a regular travel basis. The work in Far North Queensland is predominantly in the irrigation areas of the Atherton Tablelands, Coastal Wet Tropics and the Burdekin Bowen regions.

Waterwright Solutions offers a range of services primarily involved in Irrigation Management. We use the latest products and technology to assist irrigators with a commercial irrigation agronomy service. This service is well suited to the irrigated agricultural industries where input costs are high and where irrigation plays a crucial role in crop performance, yield and quality. Working closely with growers and farmers we are able to manipulate irrigation scheduling with accurate agronomic advice with assistance from the latest technology to ensure that crop performance is not limited due to poor irrigation management.

Callum Rowe is the managing director of Waterwright solutions. Callum has been in the irrigation industry for the past 9 years and has a good understanding of all aspects of irrigation in multiple crop types. His wealth of knowledge and experience is predominantly focussed on irrigated agriculture but he has been diversifying over the last few years to include commercial, industry and urban irrigation management. His experience ranges from individual crop performance under all irrigation applications systems, irrigation design and management as well as assessing overall system performance and efficiency. He has presented workshops on a range of topics including fertigation management, drip irrigation design and uniformity, irrigation maintenance and has been a guest speaker at different industry venues including the Australian Banana Growers Symposium and Australian Melon Association Conference.

Callum has a B.SC degree in Environmental Management and a post graduate degree in Irrigation as well as being recognised as a Certified Irrigation Agronomist. These skills bolstered by many years experience will ensure that irrigators get the best outcome for their crops, irrigation performance and improve their overall profitability.
