australia's eceonomy headed north, page-6

Dont be fooled the Drought is far from over , and it will take years for farmers to restock farms ,this drought is the worst in 100 yrs and farming in Australia is a battle at the best of times, trying to compete with an unfair trading world and some of the highest taxes in the world is not easy.In conclusion thats why the youngest farmers in Australia are around 40yrs old and the av is about 60yrs. Just a coment on the Murray I was talking to a young bloke who Kyaked 450 kms down the Murray and in one strech had to push his Kyak 5 kms.
