NSW drought-affected area halved
23 Jan 2008

With heavy falls across large parts of NSW and Queensland experts are predicting that 2008 could be the year that the drought breaks. In NSW the area in drought has shrunk from 97 per cent last year and 70 per cent last month to a little over 52 per cent now. However farmers on the north coast and in the central west of the state have had to watch crops such as soybean and maize be destroyed by floodwaters.

Daily Telegraph, 23/1/2008
