@eadyjo It’s an interesting yard stick and legacy is a source of pride for many, but I often think - would I put more faith in the work of a 5th generation plumber?

Heard people intro themselves as 3 or 4th generation farmer at conferences and or included in their written bio recently. Keen to hear thoughts on this - does it reflect progressive, inclusive, forward thinking? How do u respond when a farmer says they’re an x generation farmer?

@ProfRayWills @SwarmFarm That was raised during the day… to prevent further soil compaction @SwarmFarm’s working on ~ 1 tonne per axel - when batteries are lighter, they’ll be ready for the conversion.

@BindiTurner @SwarmFarm Swarmfarm units on website all appear to be infernal combustion engine powered
Are @SwarmFarm trialling electrics?
And if so, how are electric drivetrain trials going?
Asking for a friend 😬

Quality panel on Biologicals - ROI, myths, predictability, delivery and setting expectations. Not just #bugsinjugs but a serious part of the future of Ag, IF it can get the funding to drive improvement and trials #evokeag

@olympiayarger calling out the Aussie culture of self-deprecation, the US #fintech / #agtech / funding scene doesn’t get it… and it’s holding us back. #evokeag

NB - don’t be discouraged by the “mamel”, the 3 keynotes previously were delivered by industry-leading women, MUCH improved #diversity in the speakers at this #AGIC IMO. Good work on that progress @AUSGRAINSCONF / @GrainTradeAus, maintain the momentum!

@archer_rs May have single-handily resurrected @twitter… a rollicking (tall?) tale of holidaying Brits behaving badly on The Continent & trespassing on the wrong expat’s estate. Enjoy! 🍷🤣

It's holiday season so of course a couple with their camper van thought it acceptable to break my fence and camp overnight on my land. They are now blocked in with our small tractor, should be fun when they wake up.

Well done @Activefarmers on a fabulous lunch - @KerryOKeeffe1 himself entertaining the crowd!
Thank you LAWD for your hospitality at this worthwhile event.

Pomp, ceremony, spectacle and a moment in history. TBC re the whole monarchy thing…
High points: the small steps in gender blind & diversity progress - eg elegance & authority of the Sword-holding Lord President of the Council, Princess Anne slaying in pants & the gospel choir

@smithdimity Interesting businesses north and south of Cairns but you’ll be totally blown away by heading up the hill to the Atherton Tableland & Mareeba. Generational & corporate businesses growing everything you can think of that thrives with heat & water (& at scale too).
