[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 5847070, member: 54866"] If it ain't viable, it ain't viable, [U]leave the bloody stuff alone[/U]. Would you try to farm a swamp or arctic tundra? Some places just can't turn a shilling, put it on the shelf along with many many thousands of square kilometres of similar on planet Earth where farming as we know it today just won't work. If the Australian government gave billions to farmers in their own country encouraging them to try and grow sugar beet in the absolutely driest territories, and then subsidised the freight of their output to the nearest port, hundreds of miles away and none of it ever pencilled, would you reckon it was madness?
