Dry Season Threat To Wheat And Stock
Impoverished pastures press farmers as dry season endangers wheat and stock. Only about 40 percent of areas have sufficient rain for immediate needs, with many farmers already sowing as they await better conditions. The coming weeks will decide the crop fate, while some regions face water shortages for stock. Cereal specialist Mr Nicholson notes rains in the west were generally insufficient, though recent southeast showers eased some concerns. Northwest remains dry since January, delaying winter feed prospects.
