🌟SDHI fungicide resistance detected in the #blackleg fungus, South Australia🌟 No field failure has been reported, but #canola growers should take steps to reduce #FungicideResistance developing: ✔️ Use a range of strategies to manage canola to minimise disease pressure ✔️ Monitor crops to ensure fungicides are working efficiently Recommendations: bit.ly/3BguCcr Blackleg Management Guide: bit.ly/4eyyLGB 🙏 @UniMelb @alecjmccallum Angela Van de Wouw

🌾 New episode of EP Ag Chats! Dr. Kate Burke shares insights on decision-making amidst uncertainty. Key points: self-confidence, intuition, profitability, and changing mindsets in farming. Tune in for practical tips to boost your farm's success! 🎧 spoti.fi/3YxKOPL

This week Brett and Mark from the EPAG Research team have been over to the Mallee and back visiting some of our research collaborators. Thanks so much to @Moodie_ag, @kentonp_ag , @McbeathTherese, and @HartFieldDay for being so generous with your time.

Are you passionate about agriculture and interested in gaining hands-on experience in agricultural research? Look no further! We are excited to announce the AIR EP Agricultural Research Internship hosted by EPAG Research in 2024! Applications are open now droverag.com.au/jobview/resear…

While 1st time canola grower ⁦@kentonp_ag⁩ is working on a fairly friendly mallee sand I’m trying to do similar on a heavier soil. With 1-10mm forecast do you sow shallow to increase the chance of getting a germ or do higher temps in the topsoil increase chance of failure?

Considering applying for the GRDC Southern Panel? Hear about what they do with @Stephen_Loss Or chat to a panel member for their insights: @russtybloke68 @Ware_AH @rufousandco @louiseflohr @Crop_Watch @primrosepark @Prophetised @prudielee Then apply! bit.ly/3yCYzhE

@BonnieFlohr @theGRDC @c_celestina @agronomeiste @bennettbrooke__ @rebetzke_0 Nice time of year for it

Using tarps and irrigation we are manipulating starting soil water to test long coleoptile wheat emergence from depth as part of the national @theGRDC project. Treatments setup this week in SA & Vic with dream team @c_celestina @agronomeiste @Ware_AH @bennettbrooke__ @rebetzke_0

We need input from Australian farmers and consultants in a short online survey of canola establishment rates and research priorities to improve canola establishment. Results will be used to guide research in new GRDC-supported project. Survey link: surveymonkey.com/r/N7QZCXG

@kentonp_ag @ag_eyre @FarmSystSci @GRDCSouth @far_australia @brill_ag @kentonp_ag Size isn’t everything.

@ag_eyre @FarmSystSci @GRDCSouth @far_australia @brill_ag @Ware_AH You should see the photo I have of @Ware_AH in front of barley!

Magnificent sunny day at the FAR SA Canola centre in Hatherleigh. Great discussions with some real innovators. @GRDCSouth @far_australia @kentonp_ag @brill_ag

@KwMacdon I reckon it could be a solid edition to most shearing sheds Kingsley. One of the more unique places I’ve been for a meeting.

@Ware_AH Wouldn’t be to many shearing sheds with Disco lights in them

From a shearing shed out west of Ceduna to the hyper yielding site near Millicent it’s been a great year talking about growing crops with SA growers and advisors. Hopefully harvest can start soon so we can do it all again next year.

@johngbennett Thanks John. I saw a few handy crops around the hyper yielding site yesterday. Hope your place is fairly intact after yesterday

@Ware_AH Well done Andrew. Great effort. Not a bad canola crop when it can double as a shelter belt.

Phew day 3 of @GRDCSouth spring tour! Thanks @CropDoctor54, @janadixon_ and @WeedSmartAU for the big 6 @sam_hfc @AnnaBinnaFarm for the tips on building lentil yields!

SAGIT's annual site visits for 2021 have kicked off, with Eyre Peninsula first port of call. Trustee Andy Barr, Project Manager Malcolm Buckby and Scientific Officer Jenny Davidson visited sites at Minnipa & Cummins. @SA_PIRSA | @Ware_AH | @ag_eyre

Looking for a start in your agricultural RD&E career? We are seeking recent graduates who are interested in RD&E relevant to the grains industry, particularly as it relates to Eyre Peninsula. 12 month fully paid internship! seek.com.au/job/52945683 Thanks @SAGrainTrust @Ware_AH

New long coleoptile wheat trialled on EP for first time. Find out more: airep.com.au/news/new-long-… Thanks Rhaquelle @SAGrainTrust our EP intern! @Ware_AH #ResilientEP @AusLandcare

New combo of genetics (courtesy CSIRO) have given us a long coleoptile wheat with a Mace type maturity. This allows sowing at depth to chase moisture to get crops going on time. Sown at around 100 mm deep at Cootra 7 May 2021, 2 leaf stage by 26 May. #ResilientEP @Ware_AH
