Rainfall & Yield Analysis
96 years of Paracowie Farm rainfall data (1930–2025). WUE model: Wheat = 0.01984 × GS PAW | Lentil = 0.00992 × GS PAW
| Month | Correlation (r) | Significance | Implication |
|---|---|---|---|
| June | 0.58 | p<0.01 | Strongest single monthly predictor |
| September | 0.54 | p<0.01 | Grain fill — critical for final yield |
| May | 0.51 | p<0.01 | Every extra 10mm in May ≈ +0.10 t/Ha wheat |
| August | 0.38 | p<0.01 | Head emergence support |
| July | 0.37 | p<0.01 | Tillering and canopy development |
| April | 0.33 | p<0.01 | Pre-season PAW recharge — declining 31% since 1970s |
| Jan–Mar / Nov–Dec | ~0.00 | Not sig. | Summer rain does not carry to yield |
WUE model calibrated to farm benchmarks: 6.50 t/Ha wheat and 3.25 t/Ha lentil at 400mm annual rainfall. Actual yields depend on variety, nutrition, disease pressure and management.
| Outlook | Annual mm | GS PAW | Wheat est. | Lentil est. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Very Dry D1–D2 | <370mm | <303mm | 6.0 t/Ha | 3.01 t/Ha |
| Below Avg D3–D4 | 370–420mm | 303–344mm | 6.4 t/Ha | 3.20 t/Ha |
| Average D5–D6 | 420–480mm | 344–393mm | 7.3 t/Ha | 3.66 t/Ha |
| Good D7–D8 | 480–540mm | 393–442mm | 8.3 t/Ha | 4.15 t/Ha |
| Wet D9–D10 | >540mm | >442mm | 9.1+ t/Ha | 4.56+ t/Ha |
| May+June total | Season signal | Recommended action |
|---|---|---|
| <80mm | Tracking below average | Conserve inputs — reduce variable N |
| 80–130mm | Average season | Standard input programme |
| >130mm | High potential season | Justify additional N topdress — chase the yield |
When May+June exceeds 120mm, average wheat yield is 6.4 t/Ha — 37% above years where May+June is below 80mm (4.7 t/Ha). Track your May+June running total weekly from May 1.
