There is quite a bit of evidence of this correlation

@melrose6405 I would say don’t knock a science based degree like UWA…critical thinking, analysis and assessment is valuable no matter where a person ends up

@andrewdunx Not being decommissioned yet but planning for it as the project has reached its lifespan

@matthewscharf1 @FullingSteve @lentilfarmer @NHAgriculture @RMEHQ @fulllineag Is L350 a Liberty tolerant variety?
English

@FullingSteve @lentilfarmer @NHAgriculture @RMEHQ @fulllineag It was L350 canola. My brothers handle is lentil.

On the home stretch of harvest 2025. Lots of fuel burnt. Challenging crop to get threw. @lentilfarmer @NHAgriculture @RMEHQ @fulllineag

@HoolyMcg @BarryGr66 @MerinoSi You’ve got to be careful with the levy and voting to reduce it or put pressure on to spend…unintended consequences include lack of funds to pay trailing costs in multiyear projects in multiyear droughts & spending on shit projects to drop reserve values
English

@BarryGr66 @MerinoSi Iv no issue with GRDC levy’s. But not while there is over $650m in the ashtray ! All that does is lead to abuse and waste of grower funds.

@robbert115 Broadstrike doesn’t do much at the best of times….have a look at Thistrol Gold (Nufarm product) or Ecopar + MCPA Amine + diuron….either of these brews would actually work and be less expensive

@IamFarmerRenee @agronomistag I've liked your post @IamFarmerRenee , but not because I like the content, just to acknowledge. I really don't understand why the general population wants to believe farmers are out to get them ....is it insidious envy of a landowner?

Fertilizer DOES NOT burn up soil organic matter.
Long-term study finds "NP fertilization substantially augments both the quantity and stability of soil organic carbon stocks."

@johngbennett I drove past an interesting looking one in Kaniva yesterday!

@DMAg_consultant @CropDoctor54 @robbert115 It’s a huge worry. Mainly in crop topping legumes. I’m sure more stuff will come out for IBS but you’d have to pay an arm and a leg for it? Keep us posted keen to see what you find.

Always good to wrap up a 8 week trial looking at what new spikes work well with glufosinate for rye grass control. With many new actives coming out and pre em combinations, the control can jump from 15% control to 98% plus with best additives 👍@CropDoctor54 @robbert115

@lawbal44 @JarrodAmery Revystar will give you the same length of protection vs the Miravis. Demo's at Tamworth last year the Revystar lasted a bit longer than Miravis at equivalent rates. I would generally say same length of protection....worth looking at because of the unique DMI
English

@JarrodAmery I’ve been using Aviator for the last couple of years but I’m switching to Miravis Star this year. It will give me an extra week on Aviator.

@ryan_milgate @CropDoctor54 @WeedSmartAU @DMAg_consultant @agrobaz @grassrootsag @PBoutsalis @peterdnewman There were more than one occasion when a field failure of clethodim was related to under strength clethodim in the period 2011-14. Remember this @DickBranson ?
English

@ryan_milgate @CropDoctor54 @WeedSmartAU @DMAg_consultant @agrobaz @grassrootsag @PBoutsalis @peterdnewman Clethodim degradation in A.I. loading is related to formulation.....about 10-12 years ago there were cheap Chinese formulations that were overloaded to allow for A.I. degradation during marine transport to AUS...often kept degrading & could be found out of spec in field

@HoolyMcg @mbocallaghan New acid tolerant inoculants will help too
English

@mbocallaghan We have had a pretty robust liming program for the last 20 years. Ramping it up even more now to try and hit that “perfect “ spot

@Ashley_Jacobs92 LR4540P has shown some really good adaptability to variable seasons, surprisingly good yields in some low rainfall seasons. But I agree with your assessment about Emu in a low rainfall, cut off type season
