[QUOTE="Sharpy, post: 6589383, member: 1478"] Got to agree with you Karliboy, I would say that heavy poaching on that type of ground with lots of rainfall will lead to the water soaking under the grass instead of running off, thereby creating a floating sward effect as the water moves downhill over the sodden subsoil, which means that as soon as cattle go in again it will tear to bits. [USER=63856]@Kiwi Pete[/USER] you get longish dry spells followed by wet spells. Here we get months of damp, not necessarily torrential weather, with humidity in the high ninetys. The ground never dries out. Officially a drought here is a fortnight without precipitation. Droughts are very rare, main bother here is getting rid of excess water, and I think [USER=82218]@Karliboy[/USER] is the same. Water has never really been a limiting factor here. [/QUOTE]
