all of our cerial crops and winter pastures were all growing well until today! GLOBAL WARMING ! yer sure !!!! we didnt get snow today ,but it wasnt far from us ,i think with the windchill factor we were about -5 , and started sleeting over us about 3pm just as i started loading cattle to take to the saleyards , brrrrrr , cant wait for spring!

Just think of how cold it would be there if there was no global warming.

A couple of long long term forecasters that I follow say that this year will be the last warm year as we enter a few decades of global cooling. Personally, I'd take the warming, but considering we have no control over the sun, at least forewarned is fore armed.

That's funny. :sFun_rofl:
Forecasters cant accurately predict next weeks weather yet they throw out predictions for decadesoking-with-stick-s. That's why I think so much of this climate change/global warming is BS.
Knowledge changes over time, just as farming practices have changed since the 30ies from plowing to the present of min till/ direct seeding, so will our understanding of climate cycles.
Tell us accurately and consistently the weather for the next day or two or week, before you start talking decades or thousands of years.

Bear........ just wondering........ you often mention cropping in your posts, while your location is "north west nsw Australia"

When I think of north west nsw, I think of Tibooburra, Packsaddle, White Cliffs etc.

When I think of Tibooburra, Packsaddle, White Cliffs etc, I don't think of cropping.

Are you cropping dry lakebeds after a flood?

Just interested........
