Drought Pressures Rain Needed in Hunter District

Mr H P Chapman, district senior dairy instructor, reports upper valley areas require good falls to replenish water. Pastures improve along good grazing but soil and feed issues persist. Local residents anticipate continued water restrictions and farm adjustments across the region.
