After nearly 13 years this is my last post here. Sick of the ads and constant nagging to go Premium. Now I'm getting notifications from X that's just posts the boss is making. Harvest will continue with the same handle at Bluesky if you are interested. 👋

@aussiemagnum Yes, the first paddock for that as well. 👍

@teasy64 Nice Claas tractor!!

Last run of the first paddock for #harvest24

Not sure Piastri’s farm will be happening any time soon

@ryan_milgate It's almost Monday!

@teasy64 Surely you know it’s bad luck to start on a Sunday!

Soft launch at harvest tonight on Barley. Just enough for a sample to figure out what we have. 🤞

@gimmeahandle Zero row spacing, you're ahead of the curve!

A mix of vixen seeded this year with a shit germination and caliber that fell over in a big blow before harvest last year, not a bad result but very hard to replicate

I'm getting this guy to do all my machinery marketing blurbs from now on! farmtender.com.au/listing/machin…

I'm not one for "Bumper Stickers" usually, but I'm all in on this fight.

@DaveyJohn_676 I don't know as much as I should about this, but a Rupanyup local played a major part in it. placesofpride.awm.gov.au/memorials/2680…

Well worth anyone studying.

@AaronHutcho @chriswalsh008 @brendanw59 Exactly right. Also, in our rotation, having some decent stubble to cover the ground a little and trellis Lentils is a big factor as well.

@teasy64 @chriswalsh008 @brendanw59 What grain is there will be needed. Hay is very expensive to make and in these situations could become oversupplied and sit for a while. A very large nutrient removal sold at a low value. High product removal, faster acidification. Making Hay is a very hard decision in opinion.

Frost impact difficult to comprehend. High biomass areas worst hit but they were not stressed the stressed area around trees no frost impact. I guess just a growth stage thing. Total wipeout in blue areas.

@chriswalsh008 @brendanw59 I assume most agros would be well qualified for that. When stuff happens (frost) we all feel like we need to try and "manage" the situation, but I think sometimes it's probably better to do nothing. There might be more there than you think.

@teasy64 @brendanw59 Sadly, the only practical learning is being able to quantify the damage and make a quick decision on future. Do you feel this info is widely available Teasy?

We are looking for another team member to get hay and harvest done. Reposts appreciated

@Oscarthefarmer @CKMonty @SteveLarsson Torpedos?

@CKMonty @SteveLarsson Ummm.... Can vs should?

Burn all the briar Smash all the boxthorns Shoot all the cats Kill all the pigs Calm down. And then this will be a lovely spot for a summer kayak...

@teasy64 @ryan_milgate I’ve never seen anything like it before. Hail continuously for around 30 minutes varying in size of stubby lids to big marbles. Lentils hit, laser light in shed shredded damage to ute and car. Not ideal

@FinniganScott @ryan_milgate Shit! I didn't realise it was that bad. It looks like it went through between our block at Burrum and our block at Coromby. Been lucky......... So far! 😬

Bit on down your way @teasy64

@AlistairChenow1 @ryan_milgate @chriswalsh008 @Think_Agri @AllanRe37703049 Yuck!

@ryan_milgate @chriswalsh008 @Think_Agri @AllanRe37703049 @teasy64 32mm and smashed with hail 2kms north of burrero hill

@ryan_milgate @chriswalsh008 @Think_Agri @AllanRe37703049 Only 3mm at home apparently (& some of that was from Tuesday). Hopefully not much hail.

@chriswalsh008 @Think_Agri @AllanRe37703049 @teasy64 No good! It’s not uncommon for storms to go through his way

Anyone got any good storm / hail pix from last night I could use? #storms #wimmera #casterton
