@ajcookmech Did your Dad tell you that? Bruce was very fond of the green crops when he motored past in dry years? He wasn't impressed by Glenburnie. Bruce reckoned it was a dry old place. It didn't have big showy crops like his at home. Until he harvested his first crop there.

@cjoye @johngbennett So freezing minimum wages, while allowing higher executives significant wage increases, didn't make a difference?

[Michael Richards @MichaelYPmnm]

@Jeremy_Morton_ It might spoil the view in the heavily populated east coastal cities. Sydney, Melbourne, Goldcoast etc. Not sure if there is any impact on busy shipping lanes.

@FarmerTonyWhite Hey Tony, do you know what happened to a guy down your way who modified a seeder for No Till, I think it was green & may have had long flexible tubes that dragged along the ground. In the mid to upper 90's, we visited his farm. He was enthusiastic & fun. Was it Tony someone?

@bruzo2 No, what's Link?

@BPerry0410 @MattMcDonald013 @GrainProducerSA Just clarifying Brad, are you implying farmers shouldn't knock off before it reaches that level if that is their wish?

@longmire_tom @SwarmFarm @PASE_Inc @phil_longy Many Thanks Tom, sounds good.

@tomhagan88 Most people would nearly fall over after drinking 7 beers & a wine.

@AdamCoffeyNT My apologies, Adam, I prefer lamb on the BBQ, I love silverside beef & beef hot pots/ casseroles, pies, etc. Perhaps beef producers & the beef industry needs to question the appeal of a massive slab of raw meat on a BBQ and showcase beef as part of a meal.

@dirtwork69 @johngbennett Spectacular photo. Re germination. Often, we learn more from failures than from success.

@SandyHorne61 @merkin_about Take care, Sandy. We enjoy chilling in nature as well. Meredith loves taking photos as it focuses her attention on the scenery. I mainly search & let the sounds & views wash over me. I take a few snaps, but I find it tiring at times.

[Michael Richards @MichaelYPmnm]

@merkin_about We had a busy day, on top of several busy weeks. So we chilled out at the local pub & took time to mull over the order. It was bliss!

@schnaars_chris @johngbennett Expanded mesh sieves are the best. But you lose harvest capacity. Its better to use a grain cleaner. Taking that size snails out of canola should be relatively simple with a rotary screen seed cleaner. The small conical are more difficult.

@James_Stacey_ @ajcookmech Subject to soiltype, plant type & conditions

[Michael Richards @MichaelYPmnm]

@nig_michael Often snails move up with high temperatures during harvest. Before ripening they move up following the plant sugar flow. During harvest in our climate, when the snails are on the ground in the litter, snails also move up as the dew starts to set in later in the day / evening
