[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7547394, member: 86168"] we all get concerned about dry summers, me in particular, but we have had awfully wet ones, and ideal ones, which we tend to forget about. After 3 dry ones we have decided to farm for them. There must be loads of crops ideal for dry conditions, sudan grass, lucerne, maize etc, the question should be, how does an (occasional) wet summer effect their growth. For us, with the rain we have had, not as much as needed, and using the stream as a barometer, we are definitely water deficient, at the moment, that could change quickly. The other side, if we don't try them, we don't know, so all of us posting on here, should say how they have got on with different crops, the bad, perhaps more important than the good. [/QUOTE]
