@RedDirt28 @WheatWatcher Raisins or chopped dates at a pinch. Also add chopped peeled green apple and banana slices - some bobotie vibes

@WheatWatcher Biggest issue was.....there were no sultanas in the house!

Because I'm an old man (closer to 50 than 45) and I don't get it very often......thoughts on curried sausages (made with Keens curry of course!)?

100% banger. Watch the movie Old School, Bonnie wished she was this good

I ate this so you don’t have to. Suimin tomyum. “Take your tastebuds on an oriental adventure” yep I discovered what they use to clean toilets in Asian jails. 1/10.

URGENT! PGA President Digby Stretch is seeking feedback from members regarding the imminent FUEL CRISIS to inform a roundtable meeting with Premier Roger Cook, that has just been scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Contact Digby now with your views on this critical situation.

@camwallaclifton Yes. Sit a sponge at the surface or drape a tea towel over edge so they have a safe option to drink from

A hundred dead bees in this trough over the last few weeks. Given them 2 avenues to get out and still they drown. Anything else I can do?

@AmberB_C Anything to avoid the metric system huh?

A bushfire 3x the size of the US state of Delaware is burning in the south of Western Australia.

@WheatWatcher Be interesting to see what impact it has on boats already booked, loaded and on the water. Times of global unrest always seem bad for fert $$. I guess it will also increase Chinese reliance on Russian crude as they lean heavily on 🇮🇷(and 🇻🇪). Everyday in 2026 is a new adventure!

Iran. The situation could get bad for fert prices if Iran has a major fall (which looks increasingly likely).

Blow down the header or….

Restricted airspace is restricted airspace.

@qikipedia Tragically, once air dried their testicles are identical to a Titleist Pro; leading to massive poaching

@originalstinger @BradW00ldridge @robbert115 @gsandral Adjuvant choice can influence the biomass effect

@BradW00ldridge @robbert115 @gsandral I stick to 25gm broadstrike, higher rates will be more impactful on pasture

2,4-DB 2L + Broadstrike 25 g applied on 30/6 on capeweed. Still affected but it will set a few seeds. Unfortunately many others emerged and are 20x bigger but that is the nature of the beast.

@DigbyStretch That’s amazing

Anyone seen my test leads? Thieving magpies!

Impact on Australia cold air mass potential around 24th September

An awesome SA #NRI agronomy tour done and dusted. Big thanks to everyone who made it possible.

@originalstinger @AskPerplexity Exactly mate. Tinfoil hat time but 100s of B invested in a product that isn’t monetised means that we are the product. I for one welcome our new robot overlords.

@alecjohn17 @AskPerplexity Information is power, what questions do you think alphabet is asking AI about customer behaviour and targeting advertising and scraping the entire internet for info…

If Alphabets core business is advertising and Google’s investment in AI facilitates this, how does the lack of long term monetisation of AI products impact on Alphabets earning potential? Considering alternatives such as DeepSeek? @AskPerplexity

@BenmorrisMorris Reminds me of growers with high equity that acquired additional property during millennial drought and dispersed flock over large area (instead of selling all)

Does anyone know how to make a farm business antifragile? An antifragile farm business is one that become stronger when it is subjected to stresses that might break other farms. See thread for more info...

Elders crushing it. Gotta get that wetter spread boys

Driving though Perth today, 11yo son just piped up and said I know what my plates will be when I grow up dad! He spelt out: “Mouthbrthr” So proud.
