@CasFarmerCD Yes. Also happy to pay politicians three times as much in return for one electoral cycle exclusion from gov paid, or indirect gov funded employment. Jail time for offenders.

@WallworkSimon Yeah, seems a bit odd that the land sector sort of being expected to solve Oz emissions issues (with public $) for the big end of town so they can just carry on…

@WAFarmers Massive challenges growing the product, agreed. You're completely discounting the productivity gains (feed conversion efficiency) in your economic analysis aren't you? Funny those that focus on mitigation costs don't often see the opportunities.

Why Seaweed aint going to be the magic solution for cattle methane emissions. Here's my article in Farms and Farm Machinery. As usual the State Govt is paralyzed in indecision hoping Twiggy will come to the rescue #climatechange #asparagopsis

DPIRD's Stacey Power checking out the PBA Amberley faba bean in our GRDC High Value Pulse 'HyperYield' trial at Frankland in October. Lived up to its name with average yields of 5.1 t/ha.

@dustyfry1_fry @TristanClarke20 There are much worse ways to spend (and lose) a few grand 😂

@SteveCocking1 @TristanClarke20 Probably turn to dust and end up as N rich fallow for 2023 🤣 seeing some of the numbers before wind and hail this year excites me a bit with forward pricing on canola but

Good research, keen to see WA work. Now just to get crops yielding 4t without N top-ups 🤔🤔
FAR Australia@far_australia
Canola nutrition trials yield close to 6 t/ha (5.9t/ha) in VIC and greater than 6 t/ha (6.5 t/ha) in SA, both part of the @theGRDC's #hyperyieldingcrops project. Click on the following link for Harvest Yield Results faraustralia.com.au/wp-content/upl…

@dustyfry1_fry @TristanClarke20 Light it up 🔥💸 or have a crack, reckon you'd end up in the same spot next year

@TristanClarke20 @SteveCocking1 Why exactly should make for some interesting gross margins in a sub 150ml year 🤣

Glyphosate is expensive this year. There's been lots of harvest rain. How do we get the best bang for our buck? We're keen to harness the knowledge of growers, agros and researchers - please contribute

@andrewdunx @CranmoreFarming South African gov website says otherwise, 3k to 11k in less than a week. Have to be careful you're not laundering misinformation these days sacoronavirus.co.za

First harvest of the St Andrews golf course completed. Not a lot of auto steer possible so a great learning experience for the younger members of the team. #roundblackthinginfrontofyou #oldschoolharvesting#goodcropbetweenthelaked

Would be interested to see how many farm businesses have P-response curves for their own land? Can't think of much more valuable data.

Research NEWS: "How does the price of phosphorus fertiliser influence net return in wheat?" Higher P prices leave growers asking if they should rates to maximise economic return. The answer depends on P yield response, shows latest study. Read more 🗞️👉bit.ly/3nF08ai

My post from last night on the two vote victory in the election for Alice Springs Mayor. The surprise result plus ensuing re-count issues show why candidates should know count rules and why scrutineering is so important. antonygreen.com.au/alice-springs-… #auspol #ntpol

@Tomcurnow10 @bradmclean18 Thought that was the case, was more wondering out loud if the swath/stubble angle helped hold it down more versus a 0 or 90 deg row

@bradmclean18 @Tomcurnow10 Anything in the angle of the row relative to the stubble?
