@tbriggs91 Are these a composite breed Tom?

@jackatgroundhog Jack, just for interest, why not the Horwood hydraulic tynes, or why not the Morris bar?

@LauraHillsLamb @Bonidup @pbl1972 Andrew, I’m pretty new at the electric fence thing. Do you keep them hot during summer? Just wondering about the fire hazard potential?

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

The power of carbon and naturally cycled nutrients. Forage brassica sown November 2021. This is where a hay bale was grazed 6 months prior to that. Question and challenge is, can we get close to replicating this on a broad scale?

@CKMonty @JamieNicolaou @tofar1 Seed rep told me it has 5% hard seed as I was concerned of its ability to become a weed. From what I’ve seen, you do have to be careful. It’s prolific!!

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@swseedcompanyau This is dry land?

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@grant_sims What were your inputs at seeding Grant?

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@blake_vince Blundstone lace up steel caps with zip on the side. Most comfortable shoe I have worn and tough! Sole also discards mud and stones quickly.

@LauraHillsLamb Thanks Andrew. Don’t know much about them, but do like the low maintenance aspect.

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@HoolyMcg The cheese n onion dude also got it spot on!!

@GrantPontifex When were they sown Grant?

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@LauraHillsLamb I’ve found as it matures Andrew, ARG is rocket fuel for sheep. I would be pleased to see a paddock looking like that if it’s in a pasture phase.

@HoldenLachlan @swseedcompanyau @IKCaldwell @NufarmAustralia What rate of glyphosate was used? Just interested.

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@LauraHillsLamb Do you think you will eliminate crutching then Andrew

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@GreenpatchAg I like the idea. Looks like around 3m of drier ground either side of the bushes? Something to consider?

[John Quinn @farmerjohn1973]

@iMatMcDonald Goodo. Looking good.👍
