@S_M_Bowman gee that looks like a cracking crop. Whats the yeild look like? We hsve tried multiple times over here for no success

Well there goes the last of the good Lupin harvesting weather for a few days

@becsta1984 This is one of my most frastrating jobs on the farm. Near impossible to get perfect. Surely. better way

Every year I say I will do better but here we are again 🙈 please tell me I’m not the only one who lets it get to this stage because they find this system so frustrating?

@cdella19 How good are laneways

@cdella19 Dad told me laneways are a waste of money.

#askagtwitter for all the livestock produces out there….ideal laneway width, with limited space and mobility size up to 1500 ewes. I’m thinking 32m for boom width and spraying but wondering if that’s too wide/not wide enough TIA

@brodenholland We only grow them on irrigated country. About 7ish years into growing them. Plant numbers far more important than height but it's a balancing act to make sure they stay upright.

@ollyevans45 You have any thoughts?

You all will be sick of my crop spam before harvest.... But anyway, bugger me it's amazing what these things can do. I dunno why tall beans looks so much cooler than tall canola. Let's hope they yield

@danking265 We have had a gator on farm for a while, slow and unenjoyable to drive, recently have had a Can-am which is a far nicer and faster ride. However early days

Looking for recommendations for a side by side prefer non Chinese

@John_R_Bruce Better that than never! Last night was a nice surprise

7mm of rain over night means we can raise the bat for the ton for the year🏏🌧️

@LFelmingham I'd say he's wife doesn't do as much online shopping as mine 😬

This is true. 🫣

@Waynos67 That's pathetic

I feel for ppl trying to work hay at this price into a milker ration 😔

@LFelmingham @becksta11 Glad we delivered so much beautiful oaten hay to them out of the paddock 🤬

@becksta11 I know a couple of exporters selling back into domestic at the moment. Nearly doubling their money and not having to process the hay 😂 just load it back out onto trucks.

Blows my mind when you get calls from Locals that never buy hay from you but expect you to sell them something when it’s short 🤔

@FarmsAdvice What's this site mate?

Go home weather man you’re drunk 🥴 but hopefully not. Plenty needing it around us from North to South and East to West

@MerinoSi Antas Clover and Italian Rye for the most part. Some sown with small amount of oats.

@ollyevans45 If I had irrigation, I would as well. What sort of a pasture mix?

In go the irrigated pastures. Some would say too early. Pregnant ewes would disagree.

@sheepGeekCP @FeedtechS @AUSGoodMeat Thanks mate 🤞🏼

@ollyevans45 @FeedtechS @AUSGoodMeat It will run that smoothly that you will get sick of checking it & that's when you'll get caught out. After rain our buffer pellet would block the fill sensor. Electric motor would need resetting after black/brown outs.

Feedlot open for business. Open to advice/suggestions. @FeedtechS @AUSGoodMeat

@thyrafarmer @RensonSimon I might have to take the boys for a drive tomorrow!

@RensonSimon That tree was as high 3foot when we started. Our district was in severe drought again and we thought , let’s decorate that little tree to bring some cheer back for Christmas. For about 10 years no one knew who did it. We eventually needed a ladder and daylight and got busted. 🎄

Visited the Thyra Rd Christmas 🎄 today. An excellent effort by @thyrafarmer and his crew. Be interesting to see the Star being placed.

@John_R_Bruce @Jusakstud @MrsJusak Our most profitable paddocks on irrigated country are our clover/rye pastures. Most paddocks we lamb down in, then cut for hay and then graze with store lambs.

@Jusakstud @MrsJusak On the other side of the country to you guys but I’m actually considering going the other way, increasing our ewe numbers and buy in trade lamb numbers & cutting our cropping area back. Havent done the numbers yet though. Maintenance and input cost are give me the brace and bits!

Asking my twitter mates. Have any of you that quit sheep regretted it? Under a bit of pressure from @MrsJusak . I love producing wool and sheep meat. But more money and less stress sounds easy.

60mm for the week and going again on standing canola. 4.7% moisture.

@brodenholland Early days for us but a very impressive machine. Running rings around our two previous machines.

These things really are just ridiculous..... 2 machines 1200t per day over last 4 days from 0.5 to 1% loss depending on frost and straw where lodged. They Just eat. Logistics is the hard part but we are coping

@AndrewNixon22 This is terrific Andrew. Also learning with new machine. What's covers are you running on barley? No covers?

X9 sep. cover tests over position 4 and 5. In this test I removed the cover plates over the seperation grates in very dry and brittle canola. If chasing sample quality, try cover over number 5 only. If chasing rotor loss try no covers. If chasing seive loss try cover over 4.
