Make hay while the sun shines. Dairy Australia's Forage Value Index has been released and our new Tetraploid Italian Ryegrass Growa has performed outstandingly. Ranked 3rd overall and 1st for combined Early Spring, Late Spring, and Summer seasonal values.

First load hitting the weighbridge from @AGF_Seeds seed crop of our new Gretchen barley variety available to growers in 2026. Many years of work to get to this point and excited to see a strong barley variety for the M-HRZ hit the market in 2026.

High late disease pressure in @AGF_Seeds wheat trial. In photo 1 the 3 reps at top = no fungicide, 3 reps in middle = 1 x flag leaf fungicide & 3 reps at bottom = 2 x fungicide. Winter wheats in left 1/3 of photo much stronger resistance vs springs on right. Great data to come!

Thank you to everyone who braved the wild weather to attend our field day on Wednesday. We hope you got a lot out of it. The site was looking incredible thanks to the hard work of our R&D team and everyone who pitched in to make the day work.

The @AGF_Seeds Newton winter barley seed crop looking a treat in SW Vic even in a challenging season. Have observed great grazing value to meet winter feed gaps plus very competitive grain yields in HRZ with this dual purpose variety @AuSeednet

Great to attend AgGrow Agronomy @agrobaz variety trial walk Tuesday. Great to also see Triple 2 mid-quick winter wheat at Hillston irrigated site. Option for those irrigators in region looking for strong disease resistance, proven grain yield & access to feed markets @AGF_Seeds

Triple 2 continues to look impressive in trials and in the paddock. We can't wait to for its first commercial harvest so we can hear growers' experiences with this great variety.

New Lentil variety for 2026 “ALB Dane” (ALB2321) at the BCG Main Field Day yesterday. The recent AgVic releases have had a 🐕 naming theme, Kelpie & Terrier, with no real correlation, but not this time, “Great Dane”, big dog & big Lentil.
