Drier conditions protracted into November and below average rainfall was recorded for most parts of southern QLD and northern NSW cropping regions. The exception was for some parts of CQ that received average rainfall during November.
Metrics (i.e. Median and percentage deviation) for both maps were derived from a long-term simulated time-series utilising a regional scale biophysical crop model (OZ Wheat MII) for 115 years for each shire.
