Merino ewes and beef cattle huddle together on the sun-baked earth of a drought-stricken New South Wales pastoral landscape. The rich red soil contrasts sharply with the tawny wool of the densely packed sheep and the chestnut-brown coats of the cattle, creating a powerful tableau of agricultural resilience. Sparse eucalyptus and scrub trees dot the background, their muted green foliage highlighting the parched conditions of the landscape. The livestock cluster tightly, likely gathered for supplementary feeding - a critical survival strategy during periods of extreme dry weather. Cotton seed and grain feed supplements are likely scattered among the animals, providing essential nutrition in this challenging environment. The Al Mabin watermark suggests this is a professional agricultural documentation, capturing the harsh realities and remarkable adaptability of Australian livestock farming during drought conditions.
