@GroatRendall @agrobaz Groaty, probably have 50% of growers now with Robots and I think maybe 70% by summer 2025. Game changer in this neck of the woods with fallow weed control when coupled with timely residual applications. Have had an incredibly wet summer and kept fallow costs <$65/ha on some areas

@TomRummery @agrobaz What percentage of your growers are running bots now Rum?

Interested in others thoughts but I’m not happy with some modern spot spray cameras. They are a massive step backwards from weedits imo with no fix in sight. This is 2 weeks after a jd see and spray. That brand is not alone, so not isolating a brand. What are others seeing?

@InspireAgAus Always give option A, B and C and the upside and downside of each option. The ultimate decision is up to the grower as we are only there to advise.

Ag consultants. Next week, I'm presenting to a young group of ag consultants making their way into the industry. Part of the session is hints & tips/lessons learned. Knowing what you know now, what would be your top 2-3 tips for them about operating successfully in this space?

@JM_Minogue 5000-6000km at the moment out of a set of rear pads. Water/sand/mud combination very hard on them.

Landcruiser 79 Series 2022 model 16,000kms just replaced the 3rd set of rear brake pads. First set 10,000 with rotors,2nd 14,000, 3rd 16,000. Dealer says it is “just the conditions” Any ideas twitterverse?

@McLellanShannon @BilberryAgri @GoldacresAust @SwarmFarm How wide is this? 18m to fit a 60ft system?

@BilberryAgri @GoldacresAust @SwarmFarm @TomRummery

What a combo! @GoldacresAust @SwarmFarm and @BilberryAgri all working together to provide an intelligent automated solution for farmers here in Australia. #agtech #spotspraying #greenongreen

We have two new positions available- shares appreciated @KevinNorrie3

@agrobaz @PacificSeeds @agrobaz @lukeschulz9 similar feelings in the NW of NSW where typically we run a lower input system. Current input prices and a flurry of good seasons has resulted in growers taking higher than normal risk ($ out/$ in the paddock). However, inputs matching previous crop removal.

Lots of potential in these @PacificSeeds trials with #aggrowagronomy. Very thankful that we’ve had rain this year, but with the surrounding commercial crop already at $700/ha variable costs, the shiver down my spine is not exciting me for this level of risk going forward.

@DeniseAMcLellan @McLellanShannon A great opportunity for someone willing to learn. Highly recommend this job opportunity.

WE’RE HIRING Bengalee is seeking an enthusiastic and hardworking person to join our farm team. We operate at Dadswells Bridge, Wimmera VIC and Burcher, Central West NSW. Details in image. Retweets appreciated. DM for more info. #aussiefarmers #australiangrain #weloveourpeople

Retweets appreciated- we are looking for someone to join our team near Forbes NSW . Full details in ad below .

@Antfarm81 @GrainCorp I think on farm storage is the best option if able to do so. What still has protein now and is being downgraded due to falling numbers will be forgotten about in a few months time. Once delivered into the system unfortunately you loose control of it if downgraded.

@lockrey_tony @BreedersPlant Hi Tony, into this paddock as we speak. Weighing like lead with a very healthy yield. Fortunately missed the storms last night. Hoping the Moree district has escaped relatively unscathed.

@TomRummery @BreedersPlant How good is this paddock now Tom? What a season hey. Hope you didn’t get any wild stuff last night.

LRPB Lancer sown on the 29/04/21 into 2020 canola stubble. GS27 and awaiting an incrop spray and urea application prior to next weeks forecast. Here’s hoping for a kind Walgett spring. 🌾🌱 @BreedersPlant

@Tomcurnow10 What are the advantages of windrowing on an angle? We typically windrow on our tramlines. Curious to know. Looks great 👍

Swath rows stood up to the 60km + hour winds yesterday, pretty glad it was in a row. Been down for 17 days now

@BlampiedFarms Commonly observed with LRPB varieties Lancer and Hellfire at Walgett when moisture stressed. Some may think it’s a bad trait, we typically think it’s a good one as the plant aborts grains that it doesn’t think it can fill leading to no screening issues.

Ask Twitter what caused this tipping?

@MaurieStreet @agrobaz @LucyThack Hi Maurie, very good points in your commentary. Becomes a tough decision when canola is 50% flower and the seasonal outlook for spring looks wet. If that scenario eventuates than I will be glad it’s on the crop and not in the shed.

@TomRummery @agrobaz @LucyThack Sclerotinia is somewhat ubiquitous in the environment, spraying a crop that very likely will not develop sclero with current weather hoping to reduce inoculant in future years 🤔 for fungicide sustainability IMO and the wallet

Some happy, thriving Walgett canola today 💛 thinking of the beautiful community in a scary time 📸 Greg Weber

@agrobaz @LucyThack Canola crop is an important, however setting up for chickpeas in 2 seasons time is also important. Hence, trying to keep disease free stubble now.

@agrobaz @LucyThack Hi Barry, No not reliable responses. Using Bixafen and Prothioconazole in this scenario above. Aim to keep clean from Sclerotinia as it will hang around on stubble for 3-4yrs and affects our chickpea rotation (susceptible to disease).
