The season has been kind to Queensland with enough rain to produce better feed from natural grasses and from herbage than for several seasons. Much of this feed is now of low grazing quality. The better quality feed came from the summer-sown forage sorghum crops. Regrowth crops are still providing useful growth despite the dry winter where the forage crops were sown on paddocks with deep soils. Some of these crops don't look attractive, however, the way to gauge the feed is through the condition of the cattle, and it is very good.
