Khapra beetle, a threat to grains industry, discovered in imported nappy pants - ABC News abc.net.au/news/2025-09-1…

#scrapthetax Great crowd. Great speakers. Be informed. #Poorpolicy

#scrapthetax Treasury is wrong. There is a better way. #Poor policy.. Too much money leaving rural areas..

A few thoughts on an issue that is impacting rural Victoria in a very negative way. The ESV. youtu.be/m1vrKqvZCaI

The inequitable Emergency Service volunteer levy explained in detail. An average farm paid $4000 in 2022. In 2025 it will be $25,000. The major burden is on rural communities. This is a very sensitive political ATM. Lobby your MP and Victorian independents for a fairer outcome.

@rebetzke_0 @gsandral @BCG_Birchip @theGRDC @CSIROnews Enjoyed the presentation and great interactive chat - plant physiology and farmer perspective. Well done. Would be good to have this in the kit bag for years such as this!

Thank you @BCG_Birchip for a fantastic @theGRDC #longcoleoptilewheat sowing depth experiment. Long coleoptile wheats Mace18 and Magenta13 showing 90% plant emergence with deep sowing and standard-high press wheel pressure. Crops and experiment 💪💪💪 @CSIROnews

In our 7th ep of On the Horizon: Farm Tech we chats to Jil Jil farmer @WirrabillaFarms about his chemical batching machine. The conversation covers cost, transport, antagonism, scales, safety, tank sizes, efficiencies, challenges & automation. Listen now buff.ly/3t0s5ik

@Warwick_Long Congratulations @farmerDJ! A great farming and rural advocate!

@FanningJosh_ @NVT_Online @VicGovAg @JasonBrand @arun_shun @DMAg_consultant @mmaterney67 Our Jumbo 2’s have plenty of disease under the canopy too. Canopy growth has been amazing - too good. One fungicide. Will see if they can hold on..???

Jumbo 2 lentils starting to get BGM in the @NVT_Online @VicGovAg nursery. Even Sclerotes from the BGM forming. No fungicides with bolts all around. Doing extremely well all things considered. @JasonBrand @arun_shun @DMAg_consultant @mmaterney67

@louiseflohr Hey Lou, which option gets the timing right?

Hey #asktwitter - how do growers work out if it is economical to use a plane vs a boom for late season fungicide applications in tall crops? Im sure someone smarter than me has a sweet spreadsheet that I could borrow…🧐

Last week of May

Safflower starting to make a move..

@Prophetised Check out the kids waterplay space..

It’s been a while since I have been to #Mildura. River front is great. Heaps of dining options. Great breakfast at #bobbyandme

Spring on the way…

@The_WDA Well done WDA on the excellent work associated with the blueprint produced. An essential document on which to base our advocacy. The Wimmera Southern Mallee is a great place to live and work! Keep telling the story!

The employment opportunities in #Yarriambiack Shire are a reflection of the diverse and stable range of industries and services on offer in the region. There’s a real need for not only attracting skilled people to our communities for the current skills gaps and job vacancies,

@farmer_dj @VicFarmers @johngbennett @Adam_Jenkins2 @de_fegely @farmer4642 @jrjohns10 @LukeMilgate @mattrohde8 @dyerjonathan @farmtradedavy To invest into a new ‘rural’ integrated early years learning model (kinder/childcare). Rural needs are different to regional and metro.

Happy Victorian Budget day everyone 🇦🇺💵🧮 what is in your budget wish list?

@grheard Great to hear. A new ‘rural’ early years model is needed too.

Big splash in Fairfax on regional childcare issues great to see. Not one regional voice in there less so

@craigyMallee We’ve been talking about this too Simon. Mild days are called TFB and days like today no call??

So on what would appear to be an obvious total fire ban day today, its business as usual, yet those mild days were near catastrophic…Astounds me! Those educated people must be on xmas break now and going off the ‘feels like’ data
