Hopefully not a sign of things to come. For those that are thinking those mice in the paddock aren’t going to do much harm now it’s all up. Looks like mice getting into the crown of these canola plants.

Nice little sunny arvo for disease scoring our Powdery Mildew trial in wheat.

Mallee mattock got a workout chasing these Safflower roots. Have been concerned about whether the tap root would get through these hostile subs. Looks like these plants made their way through the dome clay and down into some moisture. Rainfall really tapered off since August.
