@NationalFarmers @MattBrannRURAL How are things have changed, when I did my wool classing ticket in 1990 our teacher drummed into us to never let a dog lay in the wool bins because of the hair contamination

A heartwarming image of a kelpie sleeping on freshly shorn wool has won the 2025 National Agriculture Day photography and video competition! The serene photo depicts red kelpie “Hazel” taking a break from yarding sheep with a kip on a pile of fresh wool. Photographer Kiana Waters captured the moment in a bustling South Australian shearing shed in Victor Harbor where she was working with her partner while they travelled around Australia. Kiana will now share in $5000 worth of prize money, thanks to Syngenta. Keep your eyes on our socials for our Runners-up! @SyngentaANZ #AgDayAU

Do any classic Aussie rock fans recognise this iconic house? Can you guess which band featured the ruins on one of their album covers? The property near Burra SA, is now surrounded with a thriving crop of Pioneer® hybrid canola, 44Y94CL.

@CorbinSchuster If the ground is dry and able to absorb it all, it will be okay, it might be a blessing in disguise with all the strong wind forecast

Why is it unacceptable for billionaire Bill Gates to participate in global policy making but it is very acceptable and cool for billionaire Elon Musk to have the run of the American government? Seeing as how neither are elected representatives I don't think they should be involved at all.

@therealbiztang I got 2 whirly birds on my chem shed, make a huge difference. The chemical bund only has to be a percentage of the total volume of chemical in the shed. Mine holds 100% as just put a road curb style bund. All drains to a low point. My biggest mistake was not adding a pa door.
