There has been a very good strike of fresh young Mitchell grass seedlings that will make an excellent season if there is another 30 to 50 mm within the next 2 to 3 weeks. It is well watered with 15 dams that were recently filled and 3 sub bores. Suvla is a dual purpose breeding / fattening property that is currently enjoying a good season. Good sound infrastructure and well worth an inspection.
