Last year we learnt as little as 5mm was enough to achieve 50% Canola establishment in April on dry Mallee sand! This year we went earlier before Easter before 4 days above 30c and we still achieved it. #canolaistough GRDC

The impact from the lack of confidence in the future of WA sheep farming due to the impending ban is hitting WA farmers hard at the moment. It is a cruicial market for our farmers and trading partners and by no means is it today’s live export cruel. #keepthesheep

Very well said… There is much to criticise in this government policy, but the glaring insufficiency is how to process at least another 500,00 sheep/annum in 4 years…. That isn’t a transition Senator Murray Watt Anthony Albanese …. It’s a trashing of WA agriculture….. And thus catastrophic

And what's worse, we now have several trucks a week trucking the gas from Perth (700km away). Massive environmental and social fail.

Shouldn't a balanced news report question the net impact of trucking gas 800km when there is already a perfect pipeline in place? (Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story!) abc.net.au/news/2024-09-1…

No matter what farming method: → Agroecological, → Conventional. → Regenerative. → Organic. → No-till. ↳ Clearing land for crops destroys biodiversity. The real issue is stopping more land from being converted and here is why... 🧵1/

So who do you think is going to blink first. OEM’s, dealerships or farmers/contractors? Tier 1 Harvesting gear - have they gotten way too expensive for their benefit? linkedin.com/posts/ben-k-vo…

Ag machine technology is massively increasing the ticket price of machines ....... but is it also devaluing the resale value of same - much quicker because of the short life span on technology? linkedin.com/pulse/part-2-s…

I really think most miss the biggest problem: Trade Differentials have never been wider. It costs so much to update or upgrade. - used equip depreciates faster than ever - tech features lose value especially fast - new equipment is crazy expensive - interest rates ⬆️
