We've had some good spring rains this year which has been great for our crops. But, there is always a catch!
FLIES!!
We have an abundance of those small 'drunk' flies this year. You know the one's that float around in a daze, get behind your glasses and get stuck! Far Out!
They stick fast to the wet
washing
The appropriate headwear is a must.
Otherwise they try to infiltrate any orifice they can find!
At least we haven't had many maggot spewin' blowies so far- touch wood! But I'm sure they'll arrive in their own good time.
This farm blog is about our family life on a dryland broad acre farm. I hope by writing about our life, friends, relatives and others will gain a greater knowledge of rural life, where their food comes from and the struggle of small rural communities to maintain their facilities and quality of life. For those in South Australia, help for farm safety and compliance matters can be found at www.broadacrefarmsafety.com
