@Matthewbell205 Hard to see in this photo… but I don’t think u have enough ryegrass belly 😂

First time using overwatch. That’s cool.

@trucknfarmer @LowBoomLowDrift @Tedthekelpie and guess what they couldn’t replace them either.. had to do rims as well on that job 🤬

@trucknfarmer @LowBoomLowDrift @Tedthekelpie Yep, our bourgault bin “had” 850’s on. And a classic side wall crack, only to discover they don’t make that size anymore makes a very expensive tyre change for 4 95% tread tyres. Our other Goodyear experience was with 800lsw on s780.. 90% tread and an internal failure..1/

New delivery at Manitou Manitoba 😎

@Tedthekelpie @LowBoomLowDrift They’re Goodyears… so they’ll last about 500hrs and then they will decide to discontinue that size. Absolute trash tyre maker these days.

@LowBoomLowDrift What are those tires?

@GlenFletcher11 U speed tilling infront of seeder fletch?

Canola going into Brown manure vetch perfect conditions hopefully they can stay like this all seeding

@Matthewbell205 U in a Massey? With a sisu engine? If nothing else they are pretty good on fuel

Is fuel economy pics going to be the new ag trend his season?

@brill_ag @ipaddockapps That’s an interesting scatter. in what situation do legumes consume N? Like a 12t biomass of legumes with a -ve balance?

@ipaddockapps We've measured that the average legume crop (with biomass ~6.5 t/ha) has N balance of ~100 kg N/ha. That won't be all available in first crop but adds a lot to the profitability of pulses when N is expensive and even more so when you can't get N

Interesting that the N uncertainty isn't driving increased legume plantings. Shows how bad legumes are for profitability in many farms?

@rileycurnow @ipaddockapps @AmberB_C Has anyone actually been able to quantify a benifit from that yet? @GMcMeikan @BidstrupJames

@ipaddockapps @AmberB_C Utrisha N could provide some low levels of N

So in the edge case that urea doesn't land in Au this year: Brainstorming strategies to reduce N requirement &/or increase yield under constrained N. Is it a year to burn stubbles? Tillage (with what fuel!) ? What else?

So Aussie farmers, what is your most pressing concern in your situation? Fuel, nitrogen, phosphorous? Or sorted?

@hasselljpb This is surely the time that loyalty is repaid.

It pays to have a great relationship with your fuel company…. I ordered fuel a few days ago and wasn’t expecting it for a while but they dropped off some this morning just to keep us going. More to come. Legends!

#Agtwitter. How are you utilising artificial intelligence in your ag business today? Plenty of theoretical and potential uses but I’m interested in what people’s first steps have been and what they have actually gotten value from. TIA & RT Appreciated.

@LiddellClaying @SamGuest82 Always raining more up norf 😂

@SamGuest82 Salmon gums is becoming the new Cappuccino strip!! How good this time of year

Raised the bat, thanks Cyclone Mitchell

@cosfarming This doesn’t seem fair 😂 haha I have to battle tooth and nail to keep ours alive in the garden.. that surely has tapped into some deep water? Different soil world here 🤷🏽‍♂️

Random paddock mulberry tree, ready for picking

@hirschirsch Haha yep opposite to us

Opposite year. Frosted wheel tracks

@CasFarmerCD Probably should give them a try, but getting weight has always been the issue up here. September has been as good as useless to us in recent years

@digs_bee Oats should tolerate 4 degrees colder than wheat.

No need for elevation maps when there’s frost around 😂 At least this lake country has somewhere for the cool air to go, our flat country nearly always fairs worse. Never enough hills 🤣

@AmberB_C 😂🤦🏼‍♂️

@digs_bee X labelled this as sensitive content 🤣🤣🤣

Headers just ticked over 400hrs for the season, bit over 2/3rds the way through. 🤞🏻a few more crops like this and 🤞🏻we don’t find too much more frost.

@HoolyMcg @PASE_Inc Only a tonne, thunder 1.5, a rain in September and not 38° windy day might have helped. Half the flowers got cooked, but in saying that, the peas got stitched up by the same finish

@digs_bee @PASE_Inc What did lentils do mate ?

3rd try at lentils better than the previous attempts. However with lentil prices where they are I won’t try again next year. Thunder south of blue line are a huge improvement on bolt. Peas will continue to be our legume, better agronomics and harvestability

Need clean, even soil type, good ph, can’t spray anything on them. Need to harvest as a priority as soon as ready so they don’t get closer to the ground. Not as good as peas for putting n in soil. All things I could look past if they worth $800 😂
