@lance123wise In the late 70s a professor Parsons at Melb Uni recommended using ALL the tools in the toolbox if you want to overcome difficult #weed problems.

Cheaper then chemicals.

@WFreeflyer HJ Panel Van - still got mine. A lot of rust so let rego lapse... but still runs well. Got it second hand when I was at Uni 45 years ago. I still use it occasionally around the farm mainly as a mobile tool box.

@Warwick_Long Okay, wasn’t paying attention .....

@GaveltomTom It has already lost to the Cod at Swan Hill.

Better big fish? The trout or the cod?

Any grey nomads out there want a chaser bin or header driving job ? Take your pick. Located Bolgart WA. 5-6 weeks work. Young fella can’t weight bare on pinned foot for 8 weeks Retweets please.

@susie_dent I have often heard the expression “done in” or “all done in” for that meaning.

Word of the day/evening is ‘fordone’ (16th century): exhausted, overcome, and wrung out.

RT appreciated, DM me or phone Dale.

Strong line up of speakers @ this event on how the low #carbon economy is being activated to spur innovation in regional Australia. I’ll be presenting on the opportunity of #agrivoltaics - using the ☀️ twice for food & energy production. parkes.nsw.gov.au/low-carbon-eco…

Radical idea. Bin the HSC altogether, go purely off assessment marks, keep the kids at home and keep them and their families safe. The HSC means nothing in the real world (I bawled my eyes out in disappointment at my ATAR but everything still turned out ok)

@GummageWurzel @StephRyanNats @davidmatheson27 Pushed by a big storm?

Well that was crazy. Looks like I won’t be getting through to the farm anytime soon. On the plus side, husband might be stranded but at least he was bottling wine so he’ll have supplies for a while! 🍷

Anyone know the rules for pulling an ag trailer that is 2.6mt wide through Melbourne? Can I just hang lights on the back and go? 🚗💨

Looks and sounds wonderful but as usual the devil is in the detail. Have the best minds done the modelling of the costs and benefits to Australian businesses and perhaps more importantly the “average” Australian? This could cause a greater divide between the haves and have nots..

@TimFookes @MrLukeWong @abcnews Hmmmm.... Thanks Tim. Hopefully we will get a heads up if they come to Parkes at some stage...

@GaveltomTom @MrLukeWong @abcnews Just the journos and pollies in Blayney, but they met with farmers and ag representatives in Orange earlier in the day.

One question to my farmer friends here on Twitter? Does someone know a good farmer in New Zeland who does need a worked hand like for the second half of this year or next year? I am asking for a friend/agriculture student of mine who does like to travel and work in farming in NZ.
