It rained

After 14.5 weeks it rained. 9 mm. We are competing with the Australia's.


We had foundations dug to 4 ft for the new PV system and the ground in the wheat crop was bone dry with cracks down to 3 ft and wheat roots to 4 ft into the gault clay. Where we dug outside of the wheat field it was still moist, it's amazing how the crops have dry the land out so deep. It's a good sign of soil structure. Picture shows Paul Reid from NZ inspecting the profile pit.
