Mildura orchards, 1890, by J.W. Lindt
Over the past century, the region around Mildura has become one of the most important agricultural production regions in Australia. More than 60,000 people now live there, and the area produces almost all of Australia’s dried vine fruit, 75 per cent of its table grapes, 24 per cent of its citrus fruits, and 20 per cent of its wine grape crush.
