In Australia, a new pasture crop has been developed to survive and thrive in drought conditions.

The South Australian Research and Development Institute has released a plant to farmers which have roots that probe deep into the soil in their search for moisture.

Farmers will be able to plant either of two new seed varieties, Moonbi and Wilpena, which also have high protein levels.

The crop needs little or no irrigation to produce good-quality fodder for animals.

New crop for Australian agriculture

i live in australia i know if country goes on states it is difficult fore people coz of differnt rules per state for driving licence and education etc

creating states on the basis of ethnic communities will gives rise to regional as well as communal conflicts and put a serious dent on Nepal national unity.
