Some pics from the last couple of months, I've been meaning to post these for a while. Finally had some rain here, after no rain at all over summer we scored 2" at the end of march. It also brought some cooler weather so evaporation dropped right off and we got some good pasture growth from the rain. I also planted some oats and forage brassica but with no subsoil moisture at all its going to need more rain to grow through winter. Pics 1,2 - A couple of sunset pics 3 - I had the weaners running in a block of 100% cowpeas and it was going straight through them so I fed oat straw for some fibre, they seemed to like it. 4,5,6 - Approaching storm, didn't get any rain out of it ( just wind and firewood for next year) but it did bring a change in the weather and rain 2 weeks later. 7,8,9 - Moving the weaners out of the cowpeas, I wanted to plant this paddock to oats so let them eat it to the ground. Moved them into some forage sorghum/cowpea mix. 10,11,12 - Pasture growth after the rain, Lucerne looked dead a week before this picture. The grass pasture is a mix of Premier Digit and Rhodes grass.
