Driving along the Nullabor today, and came across an ingenious water collection method.
Farmer had laid out large black plastic tarps, about 40 x 70m, held down with old tyres. It was on a small lean, and a runoff into a large water tank. I could only assume the water is somehow gravity fed into the tank.
Talking to some locals, they say it not only collects rain water, but also condensation. I was impressed.
Once I get home and figure out what to do, I will down load some photos that I took.
