Re: Drought declared
we're still very short of rain, had 7mm a couple of nights ago but otherwise nothing to speak of. There must be a terrible soil moisture deficit, the ground is still bone dry underneath when we lift spuds. Waste water has helped them yield nicely though, and the dryth has deterred slugs which usually do far more damage than we have suffered this year.
