Over on the YP (SA) & the mild finish continues to aid the crops. Scepter wheat filling wide, Planet barley & Vixen wheat. Harvest is quickly approaching in SA
Exactly 2 months on in the same spot & whilst the forecasted wetter than average spring has only so far delivered 60% of average ๐ง the crops have held on well with good grain fill on the mild Oct to date. Todayโs heat will turn things pretty quickly.
Another vessel completed @ SCS & bound for Indo. 30k in 3.9 days & a huge effort from @GrainPlains to virtually clear the site (ahead of rain ๐ค). To cap off the week, today is the battle between the Quadra sponsored Mallala Magpies & Hummocks WE. Good luck to both teams
We beat the rain this morning just in time finishing the Lan Bao Hai ex. SCS Osborne loaded with #barley. A big thanks to @GrainPlains & @brad_griff86 for a late final push on Friday night clearing a bunker to get it completed.
Starting to make a dent in the harvest receivals with a couple of busy months ahead delivering to Port. New crop cereal pricing available at site. DM if wanting to be on the list.

The Plains Grain team have batten down the hatches & would like to wish all a very Merry Christmas. Again a huge thanks for the support in 2020, looking forward to a catch up drink in the New Year!!!
The past 3 weeks have been hectic, good to finally get a good cover on the bunkers as deliveries start to slow with segs filling. The local #harvest20 support has been fantastic.
We have officially received the 1st load of grain for the 20/21 campaign. Open till 4pm today. A big thanks to @grain_pure for the bunker tarps arriving on time. XFARM available - picturesque Nantawarra Hills in the background for the 1st load. Call Brad for more details.
Final pieces of the puzzle starting to take shape with #lentil shed being cladded. Watch this space next week for the official opening details which hopefully coincides with some warmer weather.
Getting towards the site finish line with the shed being cladded, solar power in & a dry run of one stacker into the shed. On track to make the start of Nov.
#Lentils in various stages across Avon to Barabba, a spray out line on earlier hurricanes that are within 10 days of harvest through to seeing late flowers that will fill to the top
Recent rains through the Lower North of SA have continued the potential of #wheat from Grace Plains through to Stockport. 3 photos below of Scepter and one of some beardless soft wheat
