[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 8779310, member: 71668"] as an outsider & as someone who has a lot of experience & comes from an area where dealing with climate extremes & a generally “arid” environment ( although, we are semi tropical & get big floods every 10 or 20 years ), it occurs to me that very few in the UK are prepared to change their management, to acknowledge that maybe “drought” is something that may become more common, or God forbid, actually look at what people in drier environments do, ask advice or even take any interest in other options or practices the UK still seems to think you can just abuse your soils, that drainage is crucial, that storing soil moisture isn’t necessary & that it will rain every second day. If that is the case, why are “drought” threads on TFF sooooo common & frequent if “drought” is so frequent, maybe you should look at trying to manage for it ? [/QUOTE]
