Been a busy 8 days for our 2 trial plot seeders, 100,000 wheat, barley and durum yield plots are in the ground across South Australia, big effort from all involved, on the home stretch @rowey03 @jamesedwardsAGT @agtbreeding – at Gawler, South Australia

A quick snap shot of one of the many breeding sites we have across Australia. Many years of hard work and dedication to find the next best variety right there people!
Harvest has started at our @agtbreeding Roseworthy home site. Good luck team😃

It's been a great week in Saskatoon at @2019iwc with lots of fun had at the gala dinner and award ceremony last night. Thanks for the photo @CurtisPozniak
Poster's up at #2019iwc, come say hi and ask me questions about our phenotyping at @agtbreeding! @2019iwc @waiteresearch @UniofAdelaide @theGRDC @SAGrainTrust
New Paper! doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2019.00…
Basic image analysis + tractor mounted high-throughput phenotyping and what it means for wheat and other plant breeding programmes.

Last year I spent a fun day with @ScopeAU filming a segment about the phenotyping tech we use at @agtbreeding. It aired the other week, but is now available in youtube form!

Harvest not far away for the @agtbreeding team at Roseworthy
Look out, I'll be making my TV debut in the near future! Had a lot of fun filming yesterday with the @ScopeTV11 team.
We’re out on the farm to see how tech attached to a tractor can help us learn more about wheat! 👩🌾👨🌾 @agtbreeding #Wheat #WheatBreeding #ScopeTV

We moved into new offices, but this wall has been left open for a few weeks now. I knew what I had to do.

Congrats to @jdcwalter on his winning entry in the @UniofAdelaide #AFWResearchDay video competition. Watch... youtu.be/Jj6ZihZXdRM?a
Very exciting to have my first paper published! Using digital cameras to non-destructively model and estimate wheat biomass.
