Really enjoyed this one from @BCG_Birchip. Well done

@GeoffRethus Yep, common problem apparently. About 8% lighter seems to be the number

#Bredal #BredalAustralia Anyone having issues with Bredal dynamic weighing miscalculating and under applying the rate. Solutions?

Fifty tractors and 30 trucks rolled into St Arnaud on Monday, as farmers fight to stop a massive 500kV transmission line carving up their land. Full story >>>> bit.ly/3L4bYpZ

@weguelin89 Yep ring Emmett’s, Heath will sort you out. There is a kit that goes in that will give you that rate or lower

Has any one manufacturer a door to go on the back of a Bredal to get it to spread mouse baits at 1kg I have a idea but want to see if there is any other ideas out there

@mitch_hendo Noel Meeny in Swan Hill has been really good to work with so far

Can anyone recommend a succession planing facilitator that understands Ag sector? Must be highly referenced. #succesionplanning

@aussiemagnum Nah have tried one a couple of years ago but they couldn’t get anywhere near the offer we had dealing direct.

@_simongoode @ActionSteel Do you use an insurance agent Simon?

@CorbinSchuster This is really cool. If my wife sees this…nek minute 😂🛠🧰

Silo accommodation progressing. Insulation in, rooms taking shape and there's now staircase access to the second level (bedroom). Getting there 👍

✅😅

@RiordanGrains cheers 🍻

@wallaloopark Dutch points and boots 👌

55mm yesterday 👌with the first paddock of tetraploid grass to test out the new Horsh seeder

@lewis_cainn @cdella19 That’s a wild one

Finding some great results and a lot of variability within our soils with the Veris U3. With paddocks pH ranging from 4 or below all the way up to 8 in some cases. Knowing and understanding your soil is 🔑 #DriscollAg #PrecisionAg #Veris

@JonoRobinson1 @lingy_smith @FarmerTonyWhite We have same issue. 250 on 3m. We run a 1000L front tank for mowing for about 150 hrs a year. First bearing let go at 1000hrs. What’s your solution, constant bearing change??

@lingy_smith @FarmerTonyWhite Be careful, we had full kit on 260 and it’s front hubs would only last 18months. We are on 3m tho and I think over 300hp has heavier axle and hubs.

How much weight have people put on a CNH FWA Tractor? Full weight kit in the book is 810kg. Has anyone done more than this? Needed to counter a linkage spreader. TIA

@CorbinSchuster @HoolyMcg @dixon_sb @aussiemagnum @teasy64 Ridiculous, uninformed and offensive accusations

@HoolyMcg @dixon_sb @aussiemagnum @teasy64 The cynical sceptic in me considers the timing of this fire suspicious... Only makes it harder for those still with hay sheds/hay processing plants to get insurance...

Just learnt that our local brand new #gilmac hay plant in St Arnaud is currently burning!!! Processing plant and hayshed now currently fully involved!!!🤬🤬

@weguelin89 Thanks Corey

@_simongoode They do yes personally it is a machine I would run over a percentage of program to get a start in baling sooner

Macerators...can someone please tell me the good, bad and ugly. Thanks

@erin_emin1 Thanks, yeh that’s the plan, do the first paddock or 2. Also handy to have when cutting failed crop with a Draper front

@_simongoode Very tedious job in crops 6t/ha or higher. Does the job on dry down just need to have a window of up to 7 days of reasonable drying weather to get it baled. They work well to get a start on baling, even if it's only 50 or 100ha.

@weguelin89 So they will condition it pretty hard then? That’s what I’m wanting.

@_simongoode The ugly I’ve seen is over conditioning and a little rain makes mouldy hay

@kotzurPtyLtd Always a pleasure and enjoyed dealing with Mal, all the best in retirement!

Today, we officially farewelled Malcolm Bruce and Brian Cooper, who are retiring after dedicating the best part of 30 years combined service to Kotzur. We wish Mal and Heather, and Brian and Cheryle all the best for the future.

@wallaloopark Kotzur only option
