Green Peach Aphid (GPA) making itself at home in the Deniliquin region. They definitely aren’t the easiest to spot! @cesaraustralia @EldersLimited @NSWDPI_AGRONOMY

@ZoricaDuric @vanleurj @NSWDPI_AGRONOMY @GRDCNorth @theGRDC Hi Zorica, can you please send me a message with some more information on your plant testing services. I have a few paddocks that require testing.

@Tallawanta @EldersLimited No sheep here! Boomspray gets it instead!

A pre-irrigation at the end of March has prompted exactly what we wanted - a thick germination of ARG. This will be subject to a double-knock (Gly fb. Paraquat) before being sown to Canola. @EldersLimited #resistancemanagement #doubleknock

@AdamDellwo @EldersLimited @RiceExtension @ricegrowers @GrowerService Yep yep! 20.1% moisture! ✅

[Miranda Rose @MirandaRoseAgro]

Rice harvest has come around quicker than ever! Currently undertaking some moisture samples for clients to assist with drainage and harvest timing decisions. 🌾

Fingers crossed the 🐭 stay away for the home stretch.

Due to a tree obstruction, this client opted for a drone to optimise their coverage and overall weed control using Basagran + MCPA. It’s exciting having tools like this available for our rice crops. @EldersLimited @ricegrowers @RiceExtension @GrowerService @GrahamPage01

Drill-sown V071 east of Tocumwal, NSW. Steaming ahead after the introduction of PW last week. @corteva’s Agixa providing excellent control of BYG and suppressing Umbrella sedge. @GrowerService @ricegrowers @RiceExtension @EldersLimited

After a myriad of teething problems affecting establishment, we are finally starting to see aerial-sown rice crops take off. It’s comforting seeing some greenery now! @RiceExtension @ricegrowers @GrowerService @EldersLimited

Assessing a sorghum seed crop for plant uniformity. Each flush since sowing has been cooling the soil, consequently slowing plant growth and development. This season is certainly posing a challenge to summer crop establishment. @swseedcompanyau @PatrickConlan97 @EldersLimited

[Miranda Rose @MirandaRoseAgro]

@PatrickConlan97 @RiceExtension @GrowerService @angusverley Never ending list this season Patty. I can confidently say that establishment was far easier last year despite the flooding.

Rice growers facing their fair share of adversity this season
- ducks 🦆
- cold 🥶
- wind 🌬️
- snails 🐌
- poor germination 🌾
- RWA 🐛
- turbo chooks 🐓

The list goes on…what’s next Mother Nature?

Aphid infestation in drill-sown rice found whilst undertaking plant counts today. @GrowerService @RiceExtension @EldersLimited

[Miranda Rose @MirandaRoseAgro]

@Ryanosborne223 Basagran + Londax at this stage. Minimal research down here at this stage on effective control. Do you encounter Sedge?

[Miranda Rose @MirandaRoseAgro]

Drill-sown rice awaiting its 3-way mix. 70mm+ last week acted as our first flush 🌧️

Umbrella Sedge control will be a focal point on this block. Looking forward to Rice 23/24. @EldersLimited @GrowerService @RiceExtension @ricegrowers

[Matthew Sparke @matthew_sparke]

Crown rot starting to show in some paddocks with tight rotations and subsoil issues. Great way to pick a couple of paddocks for some soil pits or ripping trials also.

[Pat Conlan @PatrickConlan97]

Sending the #drone up today to aid decision making around canola windrow timing. Very handy to identify areas which are more/less advanced.
