Need overland drainage advice. Who have people used to get water to move in dry land cropping scenario to create a design to move the least amount of dirt so that water doesn’t sit in low spots? Or do people use Terra Cutter or similar software on their own?

@brodenholland @agrobaz @andrewpiper12 @FarmMile @AgrifacAU @agromick82 @YPAGAgrifac @farming_pete @richard_fabry This always gets me, I get that there are economies of scale and there are more people using everyday computers than a system tailored to ag but by the same token that should make it easier to leverage into ag with existing tech not stuff as you say is often 10yrs behind

Exactly haven't tried really complex ones in JD but my gut feel is gen 4 should be ok. We are paying alot of money for these systems and for them to come with anything less than say Intel i5 processor should be outlawed, you can build a very powerful computer for under 2000 so for our 15000 we should be getting at least mediocre performance not 10 year old tech

If this stuff doesn’t get a modern farmer Aroused I don’t know what would. Drone imagery by@BJ_Hark map creator @andrewpiper12 sprayed with @AgrifacAU through@AgLeaderTech. @agromick82 @YPAGAgrifac @farming_pete @richard_fabry

@agrobaz @DanDixon_Ag @therealbiztang @Ashley_Jacobs92 @scottburger00 @brcagents @AlleenaBurger @Eckfarming @Jeremy_Morton_ @leigh_vial Our trail of it last year had no difference in yield or protein. Applied on its own as directed. Be interesting to know what other factors are at play that would help produce a response and why we didn’t get one.

@DanDixon_Ag @therealbiztang @Ashley_Jacobs92 @scottburger00 @brcagents @AlleenaBurger @Eckfarming @Jeremy_Morton_ @leigh_vial Ok I’ll look forward to seeing some. For interest, the 2 broadacre sites here were good water quality, nitrogen limited and conditions were ideal at application and after. 🤔 @DrewPfitzner

First application for ⁦@brcagents today of ⁦@corteva⁩ #Utrisha N biostimulant that enables plants to capture nitrogen throughout the season! ⁦@AlleenaBurger⁩ ⁩ ⁦@DanDixon_Ag⁩ ⁦@Eckfarming⁩ ⁦@Jeremy_Morton_⁩ ⁦@leigh_vial⁩

@agrobaz @soupercocky And if your average rate was 100kg (for arguments sake) what rate went in each quadrant?

@agrobaz @soupercocky What was your protein and yield cutoff to classify high/low yield and protein?

2nd app of urea on canola vrt from last yrs wheat (yield x protein). Judging from maps and what the crop looks like im very happy with this strategy but there’s a bit in it to get it right. @soupercocky

@agrobaz @venningj @soilpED @brodenholland I think there is a lot to be said in what your target is, like Broden said. @brodenholland you use deep N on each paddock to determine how much urea combined with what your targeting for yield?

@venningj @soilpED @brodenholland @DrewPfitzner Yes, but it under feeds the high yielding and high protein parts of your pd for next season, ie best soils. Obviously depends on the splits you specify, but high risk of lost opportunity in some cases.

God I love this app, from protein to urea map in 2 minutes then 30 seconds to the tractor, N-GAUGE just makes VR so simple. Coupled with operations centre it means seemless data transfer to tractors

@agrobaz @venningj @soilpED @brodenholland I’ve done urea maps based solely on prior protein maps. First time trialing it this year. As Baz has said there is potential that I have underfed the better parts. I’m pretty keen to analyse the results with SMS advanced to see what affect those VR maps had.

@stephensharvest With ours I found there would be some settings I’d change in the pro1200 and then not all bins I had switched on would sow. In the isobus settings on the pro1200 you can toggle the task controller. That has saved me a lot of headaches.

Has anyone else had there pro 1200 go crazy. Started yesterday.

@ShaunBourchier What does it say in here?

All the flashest, latest and greatest ag tech and it can't consistently log a simple coverage map. Almost like having a watch that doesn't tell the time.

@agrobaz @Rawalak_Farms @Fox_Farming The inversion graph is only part of the story. It would be good to add a vertical air speed component to see how much the air is being mixed. It definitely varies within our farm and between our tower and Baz’s. A proper definition of a hazardous inversion would be really helpful

@Rawalak_Farms @Fox_Farming 2/2 few of us also have on board sprayer temp at 5m linked with inversion towers. It’s interesting how things change within pd. @DrewPfitzner might also comment.

Some very interesting inversion measurements this week. Last night very irregular, as with the 8th. The rest very strong all night. Not much opportunity for spraying of late. Thankfully most has been done out here for a while now.

@origofarm @farmingfitz It’s PETG, just what I had on hand

@farmingfitz Very nice, what sort of plastic did you use?

Drew 3d printed a new spinner for the filter cleaner. Fantastic 👍

@farmingfitz Sounds like I need to print a few of them.

@agrobaz @GeezaColeman Might have some efficiency issues on the broadacre front 🤔😂

@Whyenbah @RAKwireless @arduino What sensor do you use? I assume this is for chemical?

Flowmeter for filling spray rigs more accurately version 1.0 @RAKwireless @arduino #knowyourflow

@cleton_paul @Mullin_95 @farmingfitz Wonder what ha/hr they can get with that especially with high rates. I can't do more than 85kg/min with our setup without blocking primary lines.

@Mullin_95 @DrewPfitzner @farmingfitz

This could be the single greatest invention I’ve ever seen

@cropmad @desertfarmer84 The hard part about fixing that is knowing what size inductors have failed and why it did it in the first place and what else it's taken with it...

@DrewPfitzner @desertfarmer84 Armrest in 2004 Fendt.

@DrewPfitzner @desertfarmer84 anyone in your networks who might tackle this repair 😩

@GribbleRC Our alternative was satellite NBN which is terrible value for money and buggar all speed

@DrewPfitzner Interesting. The tax payer (us) has forked out a gazillion $’s to telcos for hard wiring ..... & we’re forced to use the mobile network in the bush..... not even remotely called “the sticks”.

I'm sure many have gone through this frustrating process of reading reports on "best value" #internet! Who has the best value for money, & highest download/upload etc. etc. #fixedwireless internet service for #rural users?

@cleton_paul @AndrewUphill @farmingfitz That's a nice looking rig!

@AndrewUphill @farmingfitz @DrewPfitzner

Can we see some more farming stuff on here & leave Covid & politics out of it for a bit. Check this out. #farmtok
