@jalbirri @SeedsRebel Today’s 10Ha weigh bridge verified average was 7.746t/Ha

@jalbirri @SeedsRebel Yeah you’re right Andrew - this clip was simply celebrating nice yield and showed some of the wheat’s potential. You might also know I showed one with .20 - 0.00T/Ha.

@bedeomara74 Hi Bede, hope you’re doing well, mate. Wasn’t sure if you wanted a photo or specs...so here’s both. The last load went in at Test Weight - 84.4; Screenings - 1.4; Protein - 12.5.

#Borlaug 100 has gone from zero (in our hailed out crop) to hero!! For those who are interested in its yield potential, here is some of it.

@HenryPe16151947 @bedeomara74 Hi Henry, we are running a small wire in the front with two large wire conclaves after that👍

@SimonGreen_GDAG Starting moisture 70% profile of ~100mm PAW, 115mm useable in crop rainfall, and about 2Meg/Ha applied flood irrigation

@Derryckm Looks Impressive. Do you know how many tonnes/Meg?

It's in the bin here and gone. Last loads left this morning. Most would have been in a feed ration and eaten by now, looking forward to watching. @pipcourtney #harvest2020

RT's appreciated. 🍻
Are there any good condition 60ft winter planters out there for sale? Preferably fold under 6.5m and could be set up for 500mm spacing. Disc or Tyne.

@mistwhisperer @Gibsonag7292 @sarahinthesen8 It seems your concern is not about cotton or fit for use, but more about water entitlements then. The guy “next door” (whether defined as neighbour, same watercourse or way downstream) is not impacted by the crop grown for crop choice is not related to water entitlement/harvest.
English

@Derryckm @Gibsonag7292 @sarahinthesen8 I agree with your sentiment however just because you are running a sustainable operation doesn't mean you aren't crippling the guy next door.
It's ok providing you can guarantee everyone is on board, water is constant and the climate is predictable.
If not then it's gambling.

We can’t eat cotton and we can’t drink cotton, yet big corporate cotton growers keep using water while our river, small farmers and community struggle in the drought. #QandA
