g'day rod,

almost sounds to good to be true hey, i'd say go for it maybe plant
along contours and plant for wind break capacity. trees will improve
the quality of pasture, saw mentioned that a 34% planting in a pasture
does wonders that sort of planting isn't a lot me i reckon hi 40's to
50's % will be great. our lushest grasses are around our eucalypt
trees the grass that doesn't get the shelter etc.,. provided by the
trees just isn't the same quality. we did our planting 6 or 7 meters
between trees and around 8 to 10 meters between rows.

i must say though i'm not a hybrid supporter would rather see indemic
native species, when they come to seeding age are the seeds viable?
and if so what sort of tree will they produce? maybe a couple of
questions to ask.

but outside of that mate you gotta do what you gotta do hey? and no
matter how one looks at it we need trees.

keep us updated
