Stuff in the Kimberly where i was was simmiler but had more iron in it. Drained pretty well. Yanks used to grow rice in it after WW2.
most cropped soil has been fkd for generations. The new breed of farmer is starting to put stuff back in. Times are a changing i believe.Good quality red dirt is around, jsut a pretty rare occurance, most of Australia's soils are old and withered compared to other parts of the world and lack structure.
Yeap thats rightEven small time breeders who still use small cliplock bags (bodhi comes to mind) use their own sticker labels and seal the packs. Most take the step up to branded or plain Mylar bags, an impulse sealer (which are cheap as fuck) and some kind of container pretty quick.
Exactly, dandy ranges. Red mountain soil, so many advanced tree nurseries up there and strawberry farms. Great for nutrients. Not so good on drainageSome good red ferrosol type soils here in Vic, very good structure. Not sure if you get it much in NSW
That soil is fantastic for a wetland mate

when my son lived at home we had a pitch down the back. Was good fun with a few people round for the arvo.Great for cricket pitches there. They could bring in those drop in pitches again. Could be an.earner lol
Yeah that’s proper clay. Red clay is worse. Seen a few vehicles get stuck and simply left because you’d need a jack hammer to get them out when it’s dry Because you’d have Zero hope while it’s still wet.
