Still a bit dry in northern NSW, although I think most of the higher yielding eastern part is in or will get planted shortly. Out west it's dry, and no stored soil water as they didn't get the wet summer of the east. In a big year, the western parts, like Walgett will be the biggest receival silos in NSW. Almost too late for them now, and to plant with no soil water would be a bit silly anyway.
Central NSW is very wet. Up to 100 mills so far this month, but they needed it. I'd suspect it would be holding up planting now.
QLD looking dry again.
I'm still trying to harvest and dry the last of our sorghum. It was a good crop and averaged 8 t/h, and is currently worth $280 on farm so I hit the jackpot there. I have no fallow dirt to plant to winter crop. Anything I put in will be doubled back into sorghum ground, which has good soil water from 2 feet to 5 feet down, but I need a few inches of rain to join it up. The Liverpool Plains could have a bigger than usual winter crop, as the summer crop acres planted were smaller than usual.
Currently raining here and the forecast is for 25 mills or more.
