Built Jeddy my dream shed for his third birthday 🎁 @ActionSteel

@IntirrTim New interface looks the goods!

72mm for June so far, can’t say it’s wet around the place but we’ll take every mm this year All the dates are clickable on #BushLinx to show a bit more detail 😁 Also, if you haven’t already click on the sensor cards on the main weather panel. Personally I like the max min dots

@MichaelHCOU 70% through here. My thoughts are if it’s a dry year best to have it sown so that every drop of moisture can make the plant grow and if it gets wet best to have it and growing before too much water logging

@MerrettContract Be interesting to know others thought process getting to the point they are at

Second seeding in a row where I think we will go through the seeding without any moisture. The units are going well with tight soil rocks and dust. Weighing up whether to keep sowing or not has been a challenge. I think this is the least worst option for us.

@gsandral @agleaderAP Just a demo at this stage replacing their previous model incommand 1200

@MerrettContract @agleaderAP What did it replace Mark?

Currently putting @agleaderAP new InCommand Go 10 through its paces. Looks a really good unit! Updated user interface is smooth and easy to use plus looks good! Can’t fault it so far

Do you think Aurora sightings have increased by the improvements to phone cameras helping them to actually capture photos? Seems to have been a lot more in the last few years than I can remember before 🤷‍♂️

@Warwick_Long Zach Johnson @farmmillennial Nick Welker @WelkerFarmsInc Peterson Brothers @gregpeterson33 My three top picks from more of a YouTube perspective. Very interesting to see other responses

Question for you: Who are the most famous farmers in the world? Give me your top three. 👇

Wouldn’t have thought to roast some beans but might have to try!

They say I live on stolen land. But I came here as a convict and built myself up from nothing. Seven generations of perseverance in a wild, untamed land. I'm told I'm committing genocide against the indigenous. But their population is increasing, along with their standard of living and life expectancy. They want me to feel guilt. For some undefined crime committed by someone unknown to me. But I won't be made to feel guilty when I've done nothing wrong. There's no blood on my hands and I'm ok with that. And if you could choose to be born in any country, Australia would be close to the top of the list. Sunshine, beaches, mountains. A high income nation with an (overly) generous social welfare system. 48% of aboriginals receive welfare. Free money derived from the fruits of others' labour. I don't see any genocide in that. And now 52% of Australia is Native Title. The majority of the country has been handed over to people free of charge on the basis of their race. But still there's complaints. They march in the streets and burn my flag. And on Australia Day, if I have a BBQ at the beach I'm labelled a racist. They want to change the date. And, to be honest, as a laidback Australian I'm not that concerned about which day I celebrate this nation. As long as it's in summer and I get a public holiday. As long as the whole nation supports it and it's a day of joy. Like it used to be. Every memory I have of Australia day is cold Coronas and the JJJ Hottest 100. The best day of the year. It's nothing more than that. A day to set aside the nonsense and enjoy what this land has to offer. And what it's given us. #AustraliaMonth

@dyerjonathan That’s a long haul!! What % of days did you actually harvest something?

RIP #harvest23 5/11/23-13-1/24. 68 days. @MerrettContract

@MattMcDonald013 Nothing unusual. Worked great on lice!

Has anyone seen anything unusual after treating sheep with Coopers Flexolt??

@stationmum101 Let us know when the snakes all meet in the middle 😉

East coast under water. West coast on fire. Summer in Australia. I hope everyone stays safe.

Pulse width modulation sprayers, anyone surveying paddocks(drone or high res satellite) and creating spot spraying prescription maps to mimic a camera sprayer?

1000 reposts, and I’ll drive the combine through this Pond.

@DraffinChris Think I’d prefer to fix the spouts 🤣

@MerrettContract Fixing the spouts on shearing shed today, could probably do yours if you want to crutch my sheep 🤪

Yesterday through my eyes #sheepfarming 🐑
