@jsmort2 Can get cups to go in fert boxes mate and use them. I have some old ones in the shed will find them and send you a pic. Used to blend rye with fert and never had a drama if done properly.

@Rawalak_Farms First time growing it on beds so haven’t harvested in beds yet but don’t see it being an issue. The furrows are very shallow.

@Rawalak_Farms Main reason is helps with drainage when flushing. Ducks have always been a problem for us out here so flushing is a must. Also crusting issues last time I grew in this paddock and the beds seem to have got rid of that problem. Only very shallow furrows,100-150mm.

The drought is a natural disaster it has not been caused by extraction or irrigation.”

"South Australian river operators are holding back $3.2 billion of environmental flows to the Coorong and Murray Mouth"
This is more evidence of the complexity of MBD management and the need to stop pointing fingers at individual crop or regions
