EPILOGUE
DURING the last few years we have had the pleasure of welcoming many
parties of visitors to "Nevallan" and "Yobarnie". Included were groups of
students, agriculturalists and scientists, as well as many farmers and other
friends.
Some Government agricultural oicials have visited us, but as "Keyline" was
not then fully developed, no explanation of this aspect of the work was
discussed. Consequently, there has been, at the time of writing, no oicial
reference to "Keyline". Every facility, however, will be aorded any Government
Department should it be interested in examining the principles of the plan on
the land where it was developed.
Also, if any other groups or organisations should wish to examine the Keyline
work, arrangements can usually be made to suit their convenience. As we do
not live on the properties, facilities unfortunately are not available for casual
visitors. Visiting arrangements are made through the address on the title page
of this book.
It should also be mentioned that very little of the Keyline development on
"Nevallan" can be seen from the roads, and none at all on "Yobarnie". There is
actually less improvement in soil fertility now on "Yobarnie" after 10 years work
than there is on "Nevallan" from two years of "Keyline" improvements.
"Yobarnie" still contains areas of poor soil and, of course, some evidence of our
earlier works. Keyline development has started and soil improvement will
probably now be rapid.
Finally, to those farmers and graziers who will use all or any of the "Keyline"
technique of this book, I wish them success and the same interest and
satisfaction in the work of improving their land that I have experienced in
developing the Keyline plan on "Nevallan".
