Don’t worry, Albo, we’re just out for a drive. With trucks. And banners. And utes. And signs. And our supporters who are chanting #KeeptheSheep. You might see some of us while you are here in Perth #auspol 🐑

#Conicalsnails mating 25 Apr 2025 southern Yorke Peninsula. Real time monitoring indicated increased activity from the 20 Apr. Lab assay indicates snails are actively feeding. Field observations this week conical snails on baits. #timetogetiton #MetarexInov Delta Agribusiness

Attention SA Livestock Producers who are thinking about importing hay from other states. There are a few rules you need to be aware of - and if you're thinking of selling hay into SA you might want to check these out too. If in doubt ask PIRSA

Wet weather events have provided ideal conditions for locust breeding across parts of Qld 🌧️ Locust plagues can cause widespread and severe damage to pastures and crops🌱 🌾 Please report locust & nymph sightings to Biosecurity Qld on 13 25 23 or online: okt.to/pSv3Uh

Of course, actual #bogong moths tiling on a cave wall high in the Brindabella Ranges are the best! There are plenty arriving at the moment, reflecting on all those observations by the good citizens of #Canberra. #Namadgi #BogongMoth #Aestivation #AgrotisInfusa

If I were in the chemical sales trade, I would be worried right now. Every year I am asked why we are using fewer inputs. More diverse rotations, better & more disease resistant varieties, better knowledge of when to plant, better equipment establishing more competitive crops,

Pre harvest #conicalsnail trial in #Lentils. Marked snails moved over 10 m in 2-3 weeks. Blue just wanted to be with yellow snails proving nature loves a diversity. Conical snails staying down at the base of the plants: 8 out of 2000 released found in canopy.

#Greyfieldslug very active after wet Nov 2025 #seSA and #swVIC with eggs still being laid. Over 20 / 500mm surface refuge largest number all year. My hypothesis: greater slug pressure in 2026 likely especially if a wet start. #Deroceras_reticulatum GRDC
