This map shows the major fruit production areas. The top left part of Victoria is the main fruit-growing area, such as oranges. It has the best water supply because all the properties border the Murray River and consistant warm temperatures.
This area is called the Sunraysia District.
Whereas inside the rectangle winter temperatures are consistently cold, and so more suited to growing apples.
