@marcuslush @southernscoop Are they cheese rolls on the top?

@BenKennings Multi-talented!

Happy to play first game of cricket for the season. 2/6 off my over (unheard of) and about six off the bat with a nice square leg four. Back held up. Rest of body is poked this morning.

So many opportunities in this wonderful industry @MPI_NZ @DamienOConnorMP

@sudeshkissun @parsonsjames @WoolsNZ @NZBeefLamb And top AgFirst Northland farm consultant! Congrats James

Northland sheep/ beef farmer @parsonsjames new chair of @WoolsNZ. An ex @NZBeefLamb chair,he joined WNZ board in Nov 2019. WNZ says Parsons understands industry challenges from grassroots perspective. Interim chair Rebecca Smith, Craig Hickson & Ian Marshall other board members.

Here's a little something I prepared earlier "The various owners of Tiwai Point aluminium smelter have been out-negotiating successive New Zealand Governments since before the smelter was even built." elbowdeepfarmer.blogspot.com/2020/02/tiwai-…

Great weather for the farm walk! Thanks for coming @sudeshkissun

@m_herbert @mikeonthehills @DairyNZ Typo. Looking at responses in animals it is likely to be higher than 11MJ. Can also feed very high levels to dry stock in droughts safely

FYI. This is one of the papers being circulated at our Arable Section meeting tonight. Topical & maybe a touch controversial in these unseasonably dry conditions. Keep an open mind about feeding grain

@mwhurrell Thanks @mwhurrell . Be nice to see some more of the expected milk price pulled earlier into higher advance rates. Cash flows under huge pressure with carryover drought costs

Just under $100mil of product sold last night but this is only part of the story. Some of our contracts are linked to GDT in some way so the upward movement supports future contracts.

@deane_ag @marcuslush

I love Invercargill.

@marcuslush 4pm twilight?

Level 3 - lockdown ramble

@NandorTanczos @charlottecooknz Why would you bag the company that keeps the country afloat in all the hard times. The taxes farmers pay used to pay your salary and pay all those benefits and DHB costs for mental health issues caused by cannabis.

When I was a Barrista and people would ask for trim milk I would sometimes just add boiling water to full-fat milk to water it down and call it a day. #confession

@mwhurrell @JohnJCampbell @Breakfaston1 Just watched this. Congrats @mwhurrell on the straightforward message that we have the strategy in place to cope with covid. Was giggling at John Campbell's reaction. Hope lots of townies saw this

Good to talk to ⁦@JohnJCampbell⁩ this morning on ⁦@Breakfaston1⁩ . I am proud of the work our Co-op is doing and how we are tracking. #GoodTogether tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-z…

@HanHend @nickbakernz And dropping them on the wooden floor at the movies

@nickbakernz It's outrageous that this is even close. Tangy fruits are happy childhood memories in a plastic cup. And that smell ...

Time for #NZLollyScramble - use the hashtag for your comments. By popular demand, I have decided on a preliminary round - the 6 most popular omissions against 6 from the draw. Top 2 from each poll go into the main draw. Polls run for 5 hours then we start on the final 32.

@sudeshkissun @LICnz @AfimilkLTD @muzz_kingsway Well done shareholders

A @LICnz proposal to buy 50% of Israeli agri tech co @AfimilkLTD for $108m shot down by shareholders: 27.56% voted for proposal. 70.30% against and 2.14% abstained. LIC board needed 50%-plus support to proceed. Chair @muzz_kingsway says board respects its shareholders’ decision.

@nickbakernz #NZLollyScramble calling pineapple lumps v tangy fruits final

Time for the #NZLollyScramble main draw. Keep on using the hashtag so that people can see your comments. As before, all polls will be threaded to this post - but before that some images to help you remember each lolly. Each poll lasts 24 hours.

@nickbakernz Big family argument over this one

3rd PLACE. Goody Goody Gum Drops v Boysenberry Ripple. The many on the Boysenberry bandwagon may be assuming this will be a formality but Goody Goody Gum Drops has sprung a surprise before.

Here we go with #NZIceCreamWars Round 1. Please use the hashtag to spread the word. Each poll lasts for 24 hours and they are threaded onto this opening post.

@nickbakernz Jelly tip all the way

Semi-Finals. #NZIceCreamWars 4 warriors have fought their way to this stage - what's your pick for the overall champion? Polls are threaded below. When the semis are finished I will announce the next competition ..... probably.
