New Uni’s and hanger bearing today. One uni was starting to fail with a squeak. Glad to find these things when the pressure is off.

Always find grading therapeutic, developing and improving farm efficiency. 🤞 the colours on the forecast allow me to get back on the home straight for #2025crop.

A warning and reminder to those buying #hay. This is lucerne contaminated with Feathertop rhodes #FTR. Remember to confine feeding to manageable areas, control the spread. This is staying off my farm and remaining in a small confined horse paddock where it is regularly controlled

🤞 🌧️. This crop sown before Anzac fizzer struggling on heavier soil after just a random 5mm on top that started it off. Different soil textures showing up as patchy establishment. Clock is ticking for these seeds. Grains still quite full with energy, just add water. #sow25

That is the end of today’s innings. 5mm and counting where I need to sow, on top of 24mm Thursday. Games changed from dust to mud. Thankful to see rain.

Getting down to the pointy end of #plant25. Shift change. Sent the old man home and on I jump for a couple of hours. 78 and still loves it when he is rehired. Loves the grease gun more than the average driver. Knows how to work.

That is a ripper inversion layer.

Taxing unrealised gains will destroy thousands of Australians farmers. 17,000 farms are owned in super funds. Don’t let this happen, sign the petition to stop the unrealised gains tax now ! wilsonassetmanagement.com.au/unrealisedgain… instagram.com/reel/DKQaiqwTv…

Last paddock, going into Field peas. Coming up nice. End is nearer.

Sunmaster on its way after 28mm over two events 10-14days ago. Really liking the emergence of dry sown crops with Pyroxasulfone, with Trifluralin still showing some small symptoms. More price reductions, now pyroxasulfone off patent, is increasing area fast on my marginal farm.

Post-em on some #Sundancer. AGT. Got some up early and some late. Be interesting spread. May grab that late October rain on the late.

Weather at Hillston today. Amazing how mother nature works.

Pretty well done. No boys weekend, just brownie points and kids that are alive 😂. Second house, with chooks in the other and now Bin’s fancy geese in this one. Fox safety. Thermal becoming a cheaper idea.

A year where small differences and rotation make a big difference toward the end. 3 different rotations and the one majorly struggling 15mm less GSR wheat on back of above av crop. Wheat following BM vetch. Then an exceptional area of a paddock on 18month fallow.

It is getting real. Cut off from brown manured vetch and vetch going to grain. Moisture stress taking its toll and this wet spring better come quick. The shine is coming off.

Field peas are looking better than some of the Wheat. Quick squeeze in of #MiravisStar before 🤞a rain. #Twilight, hopefully get to try some #APB_Bondi in 2026.

Sundancer filling away, hopefully enough moisture to get it finished. Rain would be nice but not looking likely. 157mm YTD on 18month fallow. AGT

Keeping things real. Sunmaster, both establishing after May 22nd rain. One 18month fallow, other after a 4t crop last year following vetch. Only 5km apart. 140mm YTD. Failing crop on other side of paddock maybe 1t/ha better due to a harvest storm in 2024.
