Southern Riverina Irrigators (SRI) is an irrigator body in the mid Murray Valley of New South Wales. SRI has been operating since the 1960s. Its main focus is to develop water policy for irrigators in the original Government Irrigation Districts and now for the Murray Irrigation Limited area. 

SRI is made up of representatives from the Berriquin Irrigators Council, Denimein Landholders Association, Wakool Landholders Association, Deniboota Landholders Association and West Berriquin Landholders Association.  Each of these local associations represent irrigators who are the shareholders in Murray Irrigation Limited, a private irrigation company.  There are some 2400 family farms or shareholders in Murray Irrigation, representing approximately 1600 irrigation businesses.  These irrigation properties add to Murray Irrigation's Bulk Licence of 1500 GL and cover a total area of almost 748 000 hectares.
