When in drought

Farming is a tough job on a good year, but even harder when facing severe drought. So, what happens when your livelihood depends on rain that just doesn't come? ‘When it doesn't rain it's pretty challenging. So, in a year like this where we have, you know, about a third of our annual rainfall, you just can't grow enough feed or crop to sustain the bank.’‘There's an inherent risk that's in farming that's not in other jobs. I mean, in some ways it's like any business where there's that inherent risk. But with agriculture it's like at a whole different level.’Hear Tim Paschke and John Gladigau, farmers from rural South Australia, share about the realities of farming during serious drought, and where they find hope when year after year the rain doesn’t fall.
