The Oldmeadow site is in the beautiful Samaria Valley on rich volcanic soils.
This site was in 3 sections and was well prepared -totally herbicided by a spray contractor.
Some hand planting of eucalypts was planned for after the direct seeding.
There were rabbits living in the site , the small terrier was onto them !
Randon lines were requested. 4ha.

Peter Lloyd , Samaria
5ha of direct seeding along the Blind Creek
plus a private job sowing down a narrow plantation along a boundary fence.
Helen Repacholi , DPI grant .
High quality fencing . Totally herbicided.
The Blind Creek flooded in September covering most of the area we were sowing ( If we had sown earlier the seed would washed away )water was still laying around in places.
This farmer was a serious operator , big developments were happening on this place as you can see from the photos.
