This year is shaping up to be a good season. We have had several falls since Christmas, good soaking rains that have not only filled dams but also returned sub-soil moisture, which has not been present for the last eight or nine years.
The crops around here are looking bloody fantastic despite the locusts that chewed off some of the emerging crops. The cerial crops bounced back OK but the Canola is suffering in the few areas that it was attacked.
All in all we have had the best start to the cropping season we have had in in at least 12 years!
