Crown rot starting to show in some paddocks with tight rotations and subsoil issues. Great way to pick a couple of paddocks for some soil pits or ripping trials also.

While doing my pre harvest rounds Iโ€™m coming across quite a few 6000 receivers on headers that are still running old software. Latest version is 4.60H. It would be a good idea to update, along with your displays, to ensure everything runs as smooth as possible.

Weather stations in and active. Summer weed control generally under control. Snails baited or about to be. Lots of VR lime, and fert applications sent out. I think it's planting time. If you have Metos stations that need servicing talk to us. 0467053744
