Australia ranked #1 in developed countries ans #8 worldwide for biggest diesel price increase since Feb. Shambles

@SkyNewsAust EV users account for approx 1.3% of road users (or 2.5% if you count the plug in Hybrids). Why aren't they paying their fair share already?

As the global fuel crisis grows, the Albanese government is believed to be considering whacking already struggling Aussies with a national EV road user charge. skynews.com.au/australia-news…

A good read‼️ #Auspol

@Meat_Watcher Nice to have some good news 😄

Plant-based Beyond Meat has received a deficiency letter from Nasdaq, warning that the public company faces a delisting risk after its stock registered below $1 for 30 consecutive business days. greenqueen.com.hk/beyond-meat-st…

@paradooprime Most people in the West are signing up unfortunately

It’s a resounding NO from 95% of our community to the South West Renewable Zone proposed in our delicate , highly productive and beautiful Redgum Tablelands Landscape. 2 more days to place submissions to Vic Grid. RZ in the right place and it ain’t here.

@lissagiedraitis $1000 = ashtray change for these businesses. Add two zeros and they might be accountable

Interesting

@Episode3net Next target is keeping a lid on input prices..

Australia Has Hit $100 Billion in Agriculture. What Should the Next Target be The A$100bn target measures the size of agriculture. The next target should measure farmers' prosperity. We lay out three potential options. episode3.net/conversations/…

@pbl1972 My fault sorry, got 600T lime dumped in my pdks 😄

Very unusual to see clouds travelling east to west in southern WA. Happened on Wednesday too. 🤷‍♂️

@trout_86 Pretty sure war is mentioned in the small print somewhere, bit like a get out of jail card

Curious to see if anyone else has had their contracted urea price increased by 42 percent ?

@WheatWatcher Our Govt reliance on imports is what I'm annoyed about, at least Trump is concerned about his country's oil security regardless of whether he is right or wrong. This is a wake up call for our politicians.

Unscientific Poll: Now that farming input costs are going to sky rocket due to the Iran conflict. Are you happy about Trump launching this attack?

@DamianHarris12 I'd be keen but we've bought all our fert 😂

Time for WA farmers to Fallow whole state !!! One out all out

@HoolyMcg Do it the traditional way, give em two sticks and a rock.

Fk me. Really I can burn 300 ha in 45 mins for a box of readheads and a proper wind

@BarryGr66 @GribbleRC @Voz_Dennis Me too, NGN depot had 150 orders to process and counting

@GribbleRC @Voz_Dennis was a long weekend in WA, so first thing this morning I rang my local fuel distributor to come and top up our tanks before the price goes berserk. might be a bit late he said, they have 500,000 litres on their books to deliver already this week !😬

Whilst not a pleasant thought, will the inevitable shortage of fert, fuel etc. plus low commodity prices & very high costs of production, greatly reduce food production ….. & maybe, just maybe, refocus the minds of politicians to have onshore OZ production again? @Voz_Dennis

@consettfarming @paradooprime @Wallywalta @logue_phil @Meat_Watcher MLA numbers are always behind the pace

@paradooprime @Wallywalta @logue_phil @Meat_Watcher The MLA forecasts for flock recovery seem overly ambitious for this year, I doubt they've even fully accounted for the decline yet

Breaking lamb records in February!! Going to be an interesting 6 months ahead ⁦@Meat_Watcher⁩

@KellyAlspals @AlboMP Who would be stupid enough to trust the Victorian economy with their money 😂 Basket case

NSW gets a new Airport ! New Train to the Airport. Melbourne struggling for decades. Where is the fairness as Commonwealth funding follows the Prime Ministers over the last 4 decades. WA rips Victoria off taking our GST billions. Victoria is exploited and Bullied. @AlboMP @3AW693 Come on Guys !! $4.5bn upgrade announced for Melbourne Airport | Herald Sun share.google/3GtZuB0neaV7jr…

@Episode3net Waiting for the LambEx crew to start biting 😄🍿

This conference has lots of local speakers, and an accessible price for all sheep and wool producers - $415 for two days with dinner, or $315 without dinner.

@bouta_nt @KatyKray73 More likely $40+ Billion these days..

@KatyKray73 Does these salaries come out of the $30 billion allocated to Indigenous every year?

Elected reps on Victoria's new Treaty Assembly will pocket base salaries of $198k/year (co-chairs up to $348k), close to Victorian MPs' $212k base, despite roles not always being full-time. Who else is sick of this two-tiered society that Labor has created? We voted NO because we knew that this would happen! 😡👇🏽

@WheatWatcher Would love to have some input as to where our taxpayer dollars are thrown around.

Interesting.

@LubckeMitch Don't go near Harvest brand

Up for 8 new grippers for our 500 steiger (800/70R38s). What’s everyone’s experience with ag tyres these days and what’s a good brand? Tyre shop has said BKT are a good tyre and well priced opinions please
