Early rainfall in November has given some Aussie peanut growers the boost that they needed, securing a positive start to the 2020/2021 peanut growing season. Unfortunately for one local grower, they ve made the tough decision to skip peanuts this season because of a lack of water. Alloway farmer Dean Cayley said in just over a decade of growing peanuts, they ve only skipped planting peanuts once before. With about 60 per cent of his water allocation, he s opted to plant soybeans instead. Mr Cayley said there was a wet winter and spring forecast which never eventuated so he wasn t going to hold his breath for large summer rainfalls in order to grow quality peanuts.
