Lake Cargelligo nsw Thursday it’s on the edge of cropping grazing transition zone.
Up to 40 mm on Friday and over weekend some had 150 mm

Those pictures verify why I don't think tillage in the Slum of the Ghetto is a good idea.

I do understand aerating soil maybe isn't a bad idea and might help reduce disease pressure, but I wouldn't want to risk the water and wind erosion.

When Mother Nature withholds rain and feeds us a steady diet of strong wind, low humidity and heat....best to leave the surface intact and not tempt fate.

Wind erosion has caused enough damage on this farm already, I don't think it's necessary to make the soil prone to more.

I can't "undo" a tillage operation!!!!!
