The differences in profile available water (PAW) between pastoral blocks and cropping blocks with the same soil description reflect the difference in the depth of the profile; 60 cm for pastoral blocks (except Lucerne) and up to 150 cm for crop and fodder crop blocks and Lucerne pasture blocks. Crop blocks now use drainage based on soil properties to 60 cm.
These are best displayed in the compare blocks report under Soil and irrigation results.
