Knockdown miss strip highlighting barley grass pressure in a Titan AX barley crop. Knockdown has done a great job on reducing numbers and Aggressor Herbicide is cleaning up the remaining. #Aggressor @SipcamAus @agtbreeding @AlbaughLLC

Super informative and engaging day! We're excited about new wheat, canola and pulse varieties coming through. Shoutout to GIA, @BreedersPlant @PacificSeeds @cgfarms @yorkepremium @WheatCol @hurgl1 & Larn McMurray for running us through their trials! 🚐

🚜 @awvaterco @modra_sam identified this paddock at Giles Corner (SA) NIL exposure to Grp F #rhizobia for 3-years, was perfect to try #NewEdgeMicrobials granular #inoculant formulation to maximize #vetch #Nitrogenfixation - ideal for dry sowing 👏

The Pioneer SA Sales Team recently held some trial walks at the Cummins STRIKE site and the Riverton & Arthurton canola NVT sites. A group of growers and agronomists had a great discussion about all things canola with Paul Jenke, Jamie Wilson & Stewart McIntosh.

@StuartOckerby @awvaterco @FMCANZ Consistent performer for the grower, can’t seem to drop it out of the rotation.

@modra_sam @awvaterco @FMCANZ I was more surprised by the variety being GrangeR.

Importance of 3cm sowing depth on Overwatch bleaching. @awvaterco @FMCANZ

@BPlueckhahn @awvaterco @MouseAlert Something in the water out there

@modra_sam @awvaterco @MouseAlert They’re big mice @modra_sam

Threw a few mouse chew cards out last night to see what was happening, few still kicking around. @awvaterco @MouseAlert

Going to be a big crop when the pods are like this all the way up to head height

Always the find the nicest days to set up trials

Farmers on mainland SA will have the choice to grow GM crops from 1 January 2020 after today we introduced new regulations. Farmers have twice been denied this choice by the Labor/SA Best alliance. This move will give farmers more tools to grow the economy and create jobs

It’s coming down

The things you come across, some two row Stingray canola.

Been a good year to find these two little guys everywhere

Was happy with 19mm till I started hearing what else going on around the areas 🌧🌧🌱

Good to get that out the way, now let’s get some more rain and get this season underway.

@abruceleh @Zweck17 @awvaterco No very little

Lots of Native budworm in canola around thresholds @awvaterco

It’s taken all year but found some Russian Wheat Aphids. Active little buggers in the warm weather. ☀️@modra_sam #rwa #gomicro
