Summary

First signs of salinity. The area between the shadows and the small York gum tree has a patchy covering of barley grass. This extends from the bitumen road on the left to a "barrier" in the valley floor, a hundred metres to the right. The cause of this degradation comes from two toilet drains and four other farm throughflows. It is also the flood water channel through the town.

This image is part of the WISALTS (Whittington Interceptor Sustainable Agriculture Land Treatment Society Incorporated) Collection.
