Here in the west we had 20mm Sunday 1st rain since last Sept. We have made a start on lupins @ canola and just hope we get follow up on Thur. as predicted. We are also following U.S. crop with interest,but keep an eye on the dollar as well.Would also like to here how the crop is doing in the U.S.

Hopefully it will be before the end of this month a good rain that is.light stuff forcasted for today nothing to write home about.

Don't know about "greenback" but up here in W Qld were all crying out for rain. We've had a bit over 3 inches since the rain in November. A few lucky guys have jagged a storm that went over a couple of weeks ago, but it was very patchy. We'll need at least 2.5 to 3 inches to plant the min till stuff and just about 2 to even join up the zero till country! Plenty of moisture below but it down over 6 or 7 inches deep now. lot of farmers sweating on a bigger winter plant after some dud summer crops thanks to the no show of follow up summer rains. low AUS. dollar, and low USDA production figures are great, but unless you've got a crop in the ground, it ain't going to help many guys over here at all.

Bundy, Same story where i am on Western Darling Downs. Been some patchy storms but others like us miss out altogether. Probably get away with 1" to plant but 2" would be great. Seems to be a different story on the inner Downs (east Dalby) this year. We've had 10" this year on property there. Would be good to grow something this year with very good prices so far.
