Relic ‘lands’ or strip fields are widely preserved in southern South Australia, particularly in the Mid North region and the southern Flinders and Mt Lofty ranges. They have also been identified on Yorke and southern Eyre peninsulas, Kangaroo Island, the Olary upland, and the western Murray Plains. Thus, despite their fragile nature and the many agencies that have operated to destroy them, many have survived in the South Australian landscape. They are relics of an early phase in the spread of agriculture when the one‐share plough, fitted with a mould board, was the principal implement in use
