We had a long dry spell our region leading up to this winter, our fodder supplies were low and our pastures were struggling. The pastures needed rain and time to get their roots down and build reserves, the farm looked tired.

We’re now half way through winter and our pastures are booming along.The pasture cover on the farm is just where I’d like to see it at this time of year. Yes, we have had some cold days and some wild weather but hey if you farm in South Gippsland you have to expect that.
