The Lower Waikato district is feeling severely the present drought conditions, the landscape is a colour-tone of browns and yellows, and the opinion of farmers is that the dairy herds will also be dry before long, that is, unless rain (and heavy rain at that) does not come soon (says an exchange).

At the moment there is a distinct prospect of farmers having a setback, ono which may reflect on the unemployment problem next winter.
