Notes:

1. The Tuckers paddocks (TSE, TSW and TN) were not purchased until 1993.

2. The Department of Natural Resources and Environment uses some land for experimental purposes in conjunction with Longerenong College.

3. Some paddocks have been split for the crops grown in particular years, while others have been merged (e.g. TSE, TSW and TN merged and resplit into T1 and T2).
