I'm a busy fella this week with 20 #weatherstations & EnviroPro SoilProbes to install across Vic. Really appreciate work dale boyd & colleagues do with soil probe data here. Digging not too bad after rain, but 1st warm week of the season is bringing out the gravy. Matt Rohde

120cm EnviroPro SoilProbes #SoilMoistureProbe looking dwarfed by the massive canola crop near Nurrabiel, Vic. Some lovely looking crops on my trip today to Willaura then back up to Elmore.

Neat low power soil moisture probe & rain monitoring site installed on Eyre Peninsula this morning. After ~270mm of rain this year, there was moisture to 160cm for the EnviroPro SoilProbes to be pushed into. Will be interesting to track rooting depth thru season Dan Adams

Team members Mal, Matt and David had a busy week out in the field near Cobar putting in soil moisture probes. The aim of this pilot is to evaluate the functional and productive benefits of deep ripping in dry and arid landscapes.

One of my most favourite services I offer: 'Site relocation because client makes bigger paddocks by removing fences he said 5 years ago he would leave as-is'. Fortunately EnviroPro SoilProbes are tough as nails and they extract nicely.

Where is Bunnaloo? Now I know, went there to install some EnviroPro SoilProbes under pivot irrigation. I've minimal experience with irrigated crops but always keen to learn. Beautiful country & nice crop of canola coming along.

I get to go to some awesome places. Installed some soil moisture probes & weather station at Wintinna station near Marla. Part of a carbon sequestration project, observing differences between bare ground & mulga vegetation

4500kms in 10 days across Eyre Peninsula & Victoria doing some EnviroPro SoilProbes soil moisture probe installs & weather station maintenance. Early bird catches the best sunrises. Plenty of water laying in Wimmera & western districts of Vic, lots of ducks, roos & shitty roads

My weather station & EnviroPro SoilProbes soil moisture probe install this morn is at Poochera. Upper Eyre Pen farming done in 325mm+ Ave annual rain. Marginal indeed, but lots of innovative grain growers here that manage variability & their soils well. Had the Terratrencher

Doing my best to make the Vic Wimmera into a pin cushion this week; got 14 EnviroPro SoilProbes to install including some 160cm probes. All thanks to On Farm Connectivity Program, I'm still doing applications for the 50% rebate. New 462 Stihl power head on my Terratrencher is a step

Well that's a good 3 day workout. 40x soil moisture probes installed in GRDC South funded SARDI deep ripping + cultivar project. 1.2km of cabling requiring lots of joins, cut 120m with my Terratrencher 3 times. At some stage I'm gunna start to think I'm getting to old for

The screwdriver in the ground marks the spot of my 50th EnviroPro SoilProbes soil moisture probe install this week! Am proficient at installing in crop without plants even knowing I was there. Rear facing lights on my ute rack mean early morn starts. Bloody sore now, happy if I

A couple of in-crop EnviroPro SoilProbes soil moisture probe installs this week. I really love the challenge of getting them done with minimal impact on the surrounding crop so that they deliver quality data immediately

Been a month since I was thru the Upper North of SA, some of the driest cropping areas. I post these photos so others are aware of the plight of those who won't get a harvest this year. Faba beans around Laura, 500mm Ave annual region, 30cm high at best. Wheat near Caltowie,

'Tis the Summer soil moisture probe install season for me. Got a few installed yesterday on Yorke Peninsula. I love seeing variations in soil type & how this impacts productivity. 1st photo: Premium dirt (180mm GSR), there was still moisture in the clay from 100cm down. The

Another EnviroPro SoilProbes & weather station install today on Eastern coast of Yorke Peninsula, near Port Clinton (photo looking SW directly across the Gulf to Adelaide, zoom in to see Glenelg beach). Another fascinating find at the bottom of the hole. -170mm GSR, Decile 1 '24
