Michael Hickey, #Nuseed Regional Market Development Manager for WA, introduced growers to Nuseed Hunter TF & Nuseed Emu TF at NAG field days last week.
👏 Thanks to @NigelRoutledge (Independent Rural) & Owen Manning (Nutrien) for coordinating the groups at the Yuna NVT site.

🧑‍🌾What do growers gain from #Nuseed CAT trials? @NigelRoutledge says,
"The Nuseed CAT program allowed us to see canola trials on a grower scale rather than small plots. We're able to treat it as a pure farmer demo with the same fertiliser & sprays as the rest of the paddock."

[Steve Lamb @SteveLamb6]

Recently showed the staff from Independant Rural our Canola Innovation Trial where we not only compare varieties but also across Technologies and plant populations providing valuable data for growers Standing in front of a plot of Regiment XC in big demand this year

[Nigel Routledge @NigelRoutledge]

Fantastic week spent with @DavidGrayAglink and @PacificSeeds in northern Vic & southern NSW looking at a variety of farming systems in the east, hybrid pedigree canola production, cotton production and intensive farming systems just to name a few

Recently we toured the USA with loyal clients & business partners! Travelling between New York, Iowa & Nebraska, we engaged with other global Spraytec branches, attended university presentations, heard from local growers, & visited the renowned @FPShow! Can’t wait for next year!

[Nigel Routledge @NigelRoutledge]

Fantastic time spent in Iowa with @spraytec_aus looking at corn and soybean production throughout the mid-west USA 🌽 Awesome day at the @FPShow in Boone as well, the buggy got a fair workout with 10 Australian’s hanging off it 🇦🇷🇦🇺🇺🇸

@IndependentRur1 Canola Variety Trial at Ogilvie ticking along nicely after some healthy rainfall in the past month. Most varieties have recovered well after a dry spell. Looking forward to yield results from this one @BASF_Agro_Au @PacificSeeds @pioneerseedsau @NuseedAustralia

[Xavier Ellis @XaviEllis18]

Just in case those involved in AFL scheduling are visual learners. I have highlighted an issue but added a very complicated solution.

[Nigel Routledge @NigelRoutledge]

Playing around with @Imtrade new product Guerilla. For those that have used Para-Trooper in the past, it is that on steroids! Will do assessments at 7, 14 and 21 DAA. Keen to see the results especially with the Glyphosate situation at the moment 👀 @DavidGrayAglink @spraytec_aus
