Monitoring soil moisture this winter cropping season

A glance at the root zone moisture from the Federal Governments drought map shows most cropping areas pretty well off, with the exception of Vic and SA areas. Much of Australias central-northern pastoral zone is still dry. The big mover in the last month has been SE Qld and the Darling Downs region, now with above-average soil moisture.
