Vesna Verencevic said:
Queensland By the end of 1918, the whole of the state was affected. Many rivers dried up. Darling Downs and surrounding areas were worst hit. The farming sector was severely impacted with reduced production in wheat, sugar and butter; and sheep losses totalled approximately 1.5 million. knowledge.aidr.org.au/resources/environment-national-drou...

Vesna Verencevic said:
By August 1902, heavy sheep and cattle losses were reported from Queensland. Rivers in western Queensland dried up, and the Darling River at Bourke virtually ran dry. Further south, towns near the Murray River such as Mildura, Balranald and Deniliquin—then dependent on the river for transport—suffered badly. The national wheat crop was all but lost, with close to the lowest yields of the century. Source: www.bom.gov.au/climate/drought/knowledge-centre/previous-...
