🤞🏼this can be avoided. Massive asset to the agricultural, viticultural & horticulture industries. Have been hoping there would be an expansion of the network to the YP & EP. Crucial that this network is maintained.@GRDCSouth @GrainProducerSA @SA_PIRSA @ClareScriven @BOM_au

@Telstra your coverage is garbage, you can’t claim 1bar 4G as coverage when it doesn’t bloody work 🤬 Calls are constantly dropping out or not even dialling, meanwhile iPad has 4bar 4G on Optus. Can see both towers at Moonta, line of sight. Agery SA 5558.

Long overdue, too many operators spraying in the wrong conditions still and ChemCert training isn’t the right fit for the education required.

How the heck can you claim this @BOM_au?

Hey @BOM_au can you forecast wind more accurately? This is getting pretty frustrating, especially when trying to plan/complete summer spraying. PS Is it too much to ask for a Radar on the lower EP too?

Good to see the CFS are doing there best to protect the community. Unlike @GrainProducerSA recklessly pushing limit; can’t change fire behaviour, that’s a fact, so listen to the facts being presented by i.e. a formula that’s based on a 10m reading.

Hoping the new Thunder lentils can catch up to the growth of Highlands, disappointed so far. Poor growth and early Ascochyta. Thunder north of the line, Highland south.

Hey @SyngentaANZ can you stop using 100L square enviro drums and use 110L round ones instead? Sick of taking the probes out to get the last 6L of product. Defeats the purpose of a closed chemical handling system. Competitor 110L drums have 0.5 to 1L left in them.

PSA for S series JD owners. Our S780 has always been a very clean machine but have noticed two spots where chaff can build up. 1. Around the hand rail if it’s not upright, on top of the engine cover. 2. Chaff can get stuck between the exhaust manifold bolts and burn.

Privileged to see our new sprayer being built this week. Fantastic professional and family business @GoldacresAust. Big thanks to Stephen and his family for spending the time to show us through the factory. Thanks to Bernie @EmmettsGroup for helping us find the right machine.

Impressed to see some SF Greenland forage brassica enjoying a few days of sunshine after some decent rainfall in the previous week at Warooka. @SeedForceAU @LRamsay22

Propyzamide (1st photo) performing equally well as Ultro (carbetamide) (2nd photo) under high brome grass pressure in Field peas (untreated 3rd photo). Not surprising considering the paddock doesn’t have a history propyzamide use.

For Sale: Pacific Seeds Hyola Hybrid Canola 559TT Triazine Tolerant. Seven 20kg bags available, $400 +GST per bag. Germ tested at 98%. Treated with Maxim XL & Cruiser Opti. PM if interested.

Huge congratulations to Dad being awarded the SA Emergency Services Medal. Well deserved through many hours spent on the fireground or at meetings representing volunteers, striving to continuously improve the service and the relationships between volunteers, staff and farmers.

Disappointing response. It’s not designed to make it more difficult for FFU’s; doesn’t restrict when they can leave a fire. Importantly registered units have more access through road blocks, catering and insurance. As someone that see both sides, we work stronger together.

Father’s Day well spent having a decent crop inspection, cheers Dad. Happy Father’s Day to my hero and inspiration. Canola 6ft high in spots, 44Y94 growing very well.

Very impressed with the Transcend bait still present and active 9 weeks after application. Significant reduction of feeding damage from snails, earwigs and millipedes.

Great combination of Overwatch, imazapic & imazapyr doing a fantastic job on annual ryegrass and brome grass. Good opportunity for increased efficacy in a barley crop. Maximus should pull through the bleaching in a couple of weeks. @FMCANZ @InterGrain1

Made a start yesterday with some Pioneer 44Y94 CL. Pretty excited to see the improvements over 44Y90 on a larger scale @pioneerseedsau Surprising amount of moisture in the seed bed to get the seed to germinate.

Couldn’t disagree more. Personally I do not participate as a FFU operator and a CFS volunteer to gain benefits such as the proposed “free” vehicle registration. People will take advantage, considering vehicles on primary producer registration already receive a discount on regos.
