Frost sucks, but utilising ChatGPT for frost assessments makes it slightly easier. Using the mic button and saying good or dead for wheat heads that are affected. Then getting it to work out the percentages gives some better data to work with. Not perfect but helpful. #frostsucks

@agrobaz @s_simpfendorfer Same here, nowhere near a cereal crop and unsprayed. Originally thought some drift but thinking the start of some disease. Seems to be in one variety and not the other.

Some good rainfall about to the west of the area last weekend. Unfortunately some to the east missed it. Supplementary water via irrigation very handy in tough starts. Some wonderful sunsets during this sowing. #optimusag #plant24 #agriculture #irrigation

Some RR canola ready for its first glyphosate spray of a 2 spray approach. Don’t forget to decontaminate well before spraying. #plant24 #optimusag #canola #cropping24
