@RichardKonzag @TimNeale1 @GRDCSouth @RYANKONZAG A symptom of policy failure on many levels. Production agriculture is in real trouble as social structure crumbles. There's serious angst in the grain regions beyond the urban periphery.

@KellyAlspals Victoria is the epicentre?

[Bruce Heddle @BruceHeddle]

@Jarb_Branford I reckon that’s Quena. There’s quite a lot on Central EP. Very damaging to winter crop production. Starane is dynamite on Silver Leaf Nightshade but we find it very weak on Quena. Best control has been from robust Gly with modest Ester and high rates of Triclopyr on fresh plants.

@sokitomi @Aitch_El @NationalFarmers @tanya_plibersek @PerinDavey @DavidPocock @NSWFarmers @ricegrowers @nswirrigators @Nat_Irrigators David, please don’t say that most farm families are on the bones of their arse - it’s just untrue. There have been difficult periods, but at the moment, most farm families are in a very privileged position financially.

@andrewpolk7 @S_M_Bowman Oh Deere!! 😡

@KellyAlspals @AlanKohler @TheNewDailyAu Only a politician could come up with an idea so stupid.

@DavidSandow1 @rick_mayor @littlemykonos That’s stealing!!

@KwMacdon Working perfectly for me right now Kingsley. Maybe theres a glitch with your device??

@broadacrebabe @JohnDeereAUNZ @EmmettsGroup My 3000 worked fine Tuesday til Thursday. Parked up for today.

@KellyAlspals Oh nonsense!!

@agrobaz @ajackag13 @brill_ag @Kenya_Agron I feel that grain legumes are having a major impact on nutrition other than N. Crop responses are happening that bear little relationship to N availability. We’re N fixated!!!

@MattMcDonald013 @jcressw3 @FarmsAdvice And the cartridge applicator works well. Just get enough cartridges for a full days work.

@freshy1973 @DraffinChris Andrew, feed conversion efficiency seems to be a missing metric with sheep breeding values that other animal production enterprises focus better on. What am I missing? It seems hard to address in pasture based, extensive systems.

@Tedthekelpie @Tigerbill172 @ipaddockapps @callydupe We get the same response. The effect seems almost permanent. This is about 25 tonnes per hectare of baled chaff being spread onto heavy ground with salt. See how we go.

@theGRDC @Nige_Hart @CSIRO Except the conclusions you make are wrong!! Rolling can profoundly effect plague development.

[Bruce Heddle @BruceHeddle]

@LeonGill22 And wiser I’m sure!!

[Bruce Heddle @BruceHeddle]

@andrewpolk7 12 years after EP growers clearly told GRDC that the 25 gram product was not up to the job when numbers are high Andrew, they’ve been proven correct. I have a long memory!!!

@OrrockFarm @CropDoctor54 @YPAGAgronomy @DMAg_consultant @agrobaz @grassrootsag @NufarmAustralia Same here Todd. Only goes with Paraquat now. I haven’t used it with Glyphosate at night yet but that’s the last option.

@ipaddockapps @hirschirsch @eyres_N What is it about single super that reduces the toxic effect of S Mic? I’ve always thought it pretty mild.

Has anyone got any idea how long zinc phosphide mouse bait lasts stored in original sealed drums, never been opened?
