" Can't feed ya cows any more trees " yep that is exactly what has happened to us with feeding our cattle gidgee trees during the drought.
For as long as white man has lived in our part of QLD we turn to the Gidgee tree for feed, but with recent changes in legislation we can no longer use it.
Hey Guys! This video was amazing and made a big impact on the way I look at Droughts! I am doing a school project at the moment and i haven't watched another video because this told me everything! Good Job!
