@parkhouse_98 @HoolyMcg @grassrootsag @WeedSmartAU The dust suppression is nearly the biggest reason we still use chaff decks.

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@HoolyMcg @grassrootsag @WeedSmartAU Yep, which is the worry.. the weeds always seem to find a way.

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@HoolyMcg @grassrootsag @WeedSmartAU I wonder if once a seed bank has been whittled down, is that the time when the weeds adapt to the mechanism? Like early shedding, low growth habit ect. Hopefully all these traits are detrimental to its fitness/reproduction

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@tim_starcevich @farms_sanderson Even more common in varley…. And east salmon gums 😂

@Matthewbell205 Hard to see in this photo… but I don’t think u have enough ryegrass belly 😂

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@trucknfarmer @LowBoomLowDrift @Tedthekelpie and guess what they couldn’t replace them either.. had to do rims as well on that job 🤬

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@trucknfarmer @LowBoomLowDrift @Tedthekelpie Yep, our bourgault bin “had” 850’s on. And a classic side wall crack, only to discover they don’t make that size anymore makes a very expensive tyre change for 4 95% tread tyres.
Our other Goodyear experience was with 800lsw on s780.. 90% tread and an internal failure..1/

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@Tedthekelpie @LowBoomLowDrift They’re Goodyears… so they’ll last about 500hrs and then they will decide to discontinue that size. Absolute trash tyre maker these days.

@GlenFletcher11 U speed tilling infront of seeder fletch?

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@Matthewbell205 U in a Massey? With a sisu engine? If nothing else they are pretty good on fuel

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@brill_ag @ipaddockapps That’s an interesting scatter. in what situation do legumes consume N? Like a 12t biomass of legumes with a -ve balance?

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@rileycurnow @ipaddockapps @AmberB_C Has anyone actually been able to quantify a benifit from that yet? @GMcMeikan @BidstrupJames

[Michael Hart @nig_michael]

So Aussie farmers, what is your most pressing concern in your situation? Fuel, nitrogen, phosphorous? Or sorted?

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@hasselljpb This is surely the time that loyalty is repaid.

#Agtwitter. How are you utilising artificial intelligence in your ag business today? Plenty of theoretical and potential uses but I’m interested in what people’s first steps have been and what they have actually gotten value from. TIA & RT Appreciated.

@LiddellClaying @SamGuest82 Always raining more up norf 😂

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@cosfarming This doesn’t seem fair 😂 haha I have to battle tooth and nail to keep ours alive in the garden.. that surely has tapped into some deep water? Different soil world here 🤷🏽‍♂️

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@hirschirsch Haha yep opposite to us

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@CasFarmerCD Probably should give them a try, but getting weight has always been the issue up here. September has been as good as useless to us in recent years

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

No need for elevation maps when there’s frost around 😂
At least this lake country has somewhere for the cool air to go, our flat country nearly always fairs worse. Never enough hills 🤣

[Digby Graham @digs_bee]

@AmberB_C 😂🤦🏼‍♂️
