Chickpeas up and away

We finished harvesting this field of wheat one day and planted chickpeas the next (370 ha), our workshop has been a hive of activity building the above land roller to make harvesting the chickpeas a happier experience. (to be painted next week)
The Chickpeas are two varieties from Tanzania, with not much (probably under 20mm total rain) expected over July/Aug/Sept and Oct they will have to show themselves the tough plant I think they are.

18 hours after finishing this fields wheat harvest and we are planting chickpeas back into the wheat stubble. We don't expect any rain for the next four and a half months so. We have a full moisture soil profile and so let's see how we go.
