Spot the difference between Seed Terminator and not. Ideal situation for Weedit Dual mode 50% blanket rate will get the selfsown and 100% spot for the larger broadleaf. In dual mode you purposely deactivate sensors to ignore cereal and only hit large weeds

Is it any wonder the ag industry has lost faith in weather forecasting, when the prediction goes from the first snapshot at lunchtime (looking good for SA) to the second one on the same evening??? How can you predict one extreme to the other within a few hours?? 🤷‍♂️

Soil acidity taking it’s toll on grain legume prod’n. Areas in specific soil types down into the 5’s. Area traditionally grew wheat / canola and it’s not until legumes enter the mix that pH becomes evident. Lentils with no lime history vs lentils with lime applied 2020 + 2022.

My river system explainer for city folks. All the spring rain fell to the north side of the Great Dividing Range which is why all the dams are at >100% capacity. Water must be released from them or the dam walls will end up collapsing and decimating everything and everyone. 1/3

Spent a couple of hours at our #WarakirriCropping Hopetoun aggregation. Proud of the job our farm and agronomy teams have done this year. It’s one out of the box for the Mallee 😍

Capeweed research update: weed pressure was massive..the yellow in the aerial image is all capeweed. Control has been excellent.. mixes and timing need tweaking but we are nearly ready..residue samples have been sent off to gain permits.. we are one step closer
