Body
Over the years a number of vegetation management systems has been evaluated and recommended. The Potch system is also a management system which was specifically developed for semi-arid regions where the rainfall is unreliable. The influence of this system on vegetation condition, was evaluated over four seasons. From the results it appeared that the vegetation condition in all paddocks, barring one, improved from commencement of the trial under this system.
