In 2004-05 Sydney Water supplied 526,367 megalitres to homes and businesses in Sydney for the year. This means on a good year, Cubbie Station uses almost as much water as the 4.2 million customers of Sydney Water. (Source: Sydney Water Annual Report)
- People often quote statistics like this to make it seem Cubby Station is somehow greedy and using more than its fair share of water. The fact is, they use their allocation and they use it quite efficiently. If they had more water they would grow more cotton. When they have less water they grow less cotton. The amount of water they use to do this is not comparable with urban use. --Dave 23:15, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
