Last weeks Spring Crop Walk: We visited several trail sites focusing on soil amelioration, soil acidity & molybdenum, broadleaf weed control in lentils. We finished the day with a BBQ dinner and presentation from Tim Gurney on the latest @TPorts Wallaroo development.

Knowing when to deep rip depends on soil compaction/restraints. Jack Desbiolles and Chris Saunders are showing us how effective penetrometers are in our Mildura MRU Deep RippingMasterclass. Mallee CMA UniSA

Some great advice from the UniSA boys has lead to building this weapon. Ripper from Hanton & Sharrad and custom inclusion plates fabricated by WMF. Design critical to hit our 200-300mm acid throttle. Here’s to hoping it works.

Double space active inclusion ripping, 55cm. Intact standing ground cover, whilst achieving high capacity inclusion. Reduced non-wetting layer thickness & full inclusion of higher OM layer to full depth. Plus, winged tip lifting clay from 50cm causing cross over of layers.
