And subsequent to my last farm report we got real actual rain. Not as much as we’d have liked, but it was sufficient to keep us in the holding pattern of “dry but not impossibly so.” Over two days it dumped 50 mls or two inches on Farside. We’d have liked double or even triple that, but it’s a lot better than the 6 mls we’d had up until then. It looks possible that that may be it for March, which continues to leave us all dry, but it could be worse, a lot worse, and in some areas of the country, it is. I’ll settle for not being them.
