@graeme_hendy Always thought a renovator made more sense on the front, instant feedback on the job and compacted. Looks good.

We built this to save tracks on RT, sprayer tyres narrow and in the bogged area doesn’t do the tracks any good.

@Tedthekelpie @gwiesefarms When I was in Europe in 2019, farmers couldn't understand why us Aussies had trees in the middle of cropping paddocks

How to buy farms with less cash. As completed finance. You purchase 80 acres of combination ground for $400,000. 68 of those acres are dry land while the balance made up of trees, roads and waste. You plan to clean up the trees and be able to farm 77 acres. You also will be able to irrigate this property for next year, greatly increasing the value. Improvements will cost you around $80,000. Once the improvements are complete, the property will be worth $700,000. You could coordinate with your lender to have an ‘as completed’ appraisal done and finance 65% of the final value of the property ($700,000). ◦The math: $400,000 purchase plus $80,000 of improvements equals $480,000. $700,000 value after improvements X 65% = $455,000. This transaction now only needs $25,000 out of pocket to be completed.

@ipaddockapps Will the harvester and seeder utilise same boundaries? I’ve used a length of pvc hanging out the side and about 800mm offset to make room for end of front.

@markplunks @drage_farms I agree, it’s a pain in my current app when you input a receipt with a different brand name and have 2 entries.

I’ve had a lot of suggestions to build a spray chemical inventory app so here’s what I’ve made so far. Let me know what you want to see in an app like this and I’ll add it. Also help with a name because boombook sounds ridiculous 😂

EPR system in Australia is absolutely obsurd! Trying to get this accurate and adding buyers quantities x variety is difficult and time consuming, especially if you store grain. When are we going to a point of sale epr transaction exactly like we do with levies. @theGRDC 🤬

With earlier sowing comes bigger crops that need more water and nutritents. I'm starting to think that late crop health and canopy structure is more an influence on overall frost damage than timing. I may be wrong but seems to be healthy crops that's definitely have no stress get through better.

Frost damaged Canola & some of the Ceder & Lemon trees around our house at Walbundrie SE Riverina NSW, Most of pods on the main stems from April germination canola have none or 1-2 viable seeds… might be lucky a lot of our Canola only germinated on a late May rain 🤞

@MattMcDonald013 That’s plumbed a bit different to ours. To make cleaning out easier I set up a second pump for fresh water to pump through venturi and tank rinse. I took the drum rise off and will plumb it up to second pump.

@Angus_Atkinson1 @stationmum101 Disconnected our land line. It was constantly not good enough to use and took too long for them to come out and fix. We’re just lucky to have ‘enough’ mobile service….just

How bad are telecommunications getting in the bush! My Telstra landline is so bad I had to cancel a call with government reps to discuss weeds due to reception. Can’t use the mobile service because it stops working all the time. I know I should get starlink but to tight!

@Rothmus I wish I could cancel. Unfortunately Disney+ has Bluey so if they raise the price to a million dollars a year I'll have no choice but to pay it

@danderfield @ChefGoat23 The membership pack was one of the reasons I opted out. Live in the country and only go to a game every other year, they wanted to charge me postage for it. Petty but I drew the line 😂

My geelong membership is the biggest waste of money. Been a member for 25 years & all I want to do is rock up and stand and watch footy. Can’t get a ticket without buying a seat 🤦🏻‍♂️ what exactly does the $300 membership get you if you can’t get in without paying?

@stationmum101 Made the mistake of reading some comments in that thread. Echo chamber of misinformation and ignorance
