Experimental Pine Planting Plan For Geraldton Area

Conservator of Forests replies to Hon E H H Hall MLA about pines at Geraldton. Assistant Conservator Brockway and metropolitan pine station head Perry recommend establishing one acre on Location No. 8987 as an experimental area with young pines supplied by the Forests Department. They caution against large scale planting until soil surveys and trials prove land suitability, noting Geraldton’s annual rainfall of seventeen inches is marginal for Pinus. The letter ends with awaiting planting results to decide on a possible small experimental plantation at Geraldton if a suitable compact area is found.
