It seems now the 2nd Minister and Member for Fairfield (Sydney) representing the env is using rural tax payers money to gather city votes, jets, cars and all else included. Every rural community should be offended with this govt using them to get city votes.

@BradenBullock Braden we assume tailwater has same N concentration as treated head ditch water as turn around back to field is continuous.

@turrawan Will, we apply about half the nitrogen pre plant (150 kg ha N) and the other half water run with first 3 in crop irrigations, allowing us to fine tune the total rate depending on petiole sample test results and estimated crop yield potential .
#Asktwitter anyone make a non genuine tow kit for a Quadtrac 550/600?
CNH want $10k for genuine kit of a 37 mm wire rope, a rear attachment bracket and a front holding hook.
@mvagriculture For those playing at home, tow brackets by Agriweld Dubbo and wire rope and shackles from Luke Cross Engineering Dubbo.
Thanks everyone for their help and suggestions

Great expose of Albo's hypocrisy: gets his 23 y.o. son a Qantas Chairmans Lounge membership and a PWC internship just as Qatar Airlines expansion to Australia denied and YES 23 appears on Qantas planes!
