Rivco Australia is dedicated to one thing: helping irrigators and water users access secure, flexible water supply across the Murray–Darling Basin.

Rivco Australia Water Supply

Every business is different. That’s why we offer a mix of water supply options — giving you security, flexibility and control over your costs.

Entitlement Leases

Secure long-term access to water without the upfront capital outlay.

  • Lease terms typically range from 3–10 years.
  • Set annual lease payments (yields of ~4–6%).
  • Often include annual price escalators for predictability.
  • Ideal for permanent plantings needing reliable base supply.

Allocation Supply

Buy seasonal water when you need it.

  • Spot allocation purchases for immediate use.
  • Forward contracts to lock in supply ahead of time.
  • Suited to annual crops or topping up permanent plantings in dry years.

Carryover Options

Save today’s unused water for tomorrow.

  • Carry allocation into the next irrigation season (where rules allow).
  • Provides peace of mind in dry years.
  • Helps smooth volatility and protect against early-season uncertainty.

Tailored Structures

Not every irrigator fits a box — we build supply solutions around your needs.

  • Mix of entitlement lease + allocation.
  • Seasonal top-ups layered onto long-term base security.
  • Payment structures aligned to crop cycles or cash flow.
