Koo Wee Rup, Agricultural town in Victoria, Australia.
Koo Wee Rup spreads across former marshlands that have been transformed into productive farmland with rich soil supporting diverse crop production.
The drainage schemes of the early 1900s reshaped the swampy landscape into agricultural land, marking a significant transformation in the region's development.
The name originates from Aboriginal words meaning 'blackfish swimming', reflecting the indigenous connection to the area's waterways and natural resources.
The town maintains educational facilities including primary schools and a secondary college, serving the educational needs of approximately 4,000 residents.
Koo Wee Rup stands as Australia's primary asparagus production district, with extensive market gardens supplying vegetables throughout the region.
