A first for me, spraying beans with Drones, impressed with the coverage and penetration into the canopy. #gamechanger @dronefieldservices

Neo barley sown with a disc seeder emerging well, Mateno + Avadex IBS looking good! 👏

[Western AG @ag_western]

The importance of good residue management at harvest is evident in a dry start; more consistent residue coverage = more consistent moisture at sowing 💪🏼

Overwatch working hard while beans slowly emerge from hibernation in the West Wimmera

Accroc powering along ready for a graze, or so the slug thinks #rgtaccroc #agfseeds

[Philip Hawker @Phil_WesternAG]

Invite for tomorrow morning. Really interesting trial with new and existing herbicides being used in different ways. All growers welcome. Please text or call for catering. Hope you can make it.

Great time at our annual @ag_western client gun shoot Friday evening. Natimuk field and game putting on a good show!
We thank all our clients for their support, see you there next year!

@chardy_agro @GrowersSupplies @deltaagribus @JakeHarkness2 @DavKee43 Keep an eye on regrowth this is the same brew 2 months after

First paddock of canola in the bin, now to tackle the beans 🙈 big thanks to @NickPekin for helping me out with a header after contractors left me in the dark 🤦🏼‍♂️

[Sam Gabbe @gooba_7]

@AlexGrove680 Bit of a one off this year, most varieties fell over without a robust fungicide program, yield is still king but would be nice knowing there’s some resistance up your sleeve if getting on the paddocks is an issue

[Sam Gabbe @gooba_7]

Credit where credits due, client managed to get 4 well timed fungicides on their rockstar in some of the wettest country in the Wimmera, very clean heads maxing yield potential this year 🤞🏼 the rain stops and they pull it off in a very tough wet year 💪🏼

[Sam Gabbe @gooba_7]

@KwMacdon Highest pressure stripe rust in 50 years, and wettest year in a long time, a lot of head blight and rust in head where sprays were missed, mixture of triazoles and strobys 👍🏻

[Sam Gabbe @gooba_7]

@BEARBiologics Would love to see a picture of a wheat crop treated that way in the Wimmera at the minute

[Sam Gabbe @gooba_7]

A proactive wheat fungicide program, really paying dividends this year with the amount of rust pressure around 👌🏻

[Sam Gabbe @gooba_7]

Looking back on last weeks rippin trip to Port Douglas 🍺🍺 Cheers @Bayer4CropsAU

@mdfowler100 Had the same thing happen to me all germinated fine
