Growers should be on the look out for mice activity in maturing crops. We have noticed mice damage to rice crops around the Riverina. Check your paddocks and bait accordingly. @ricegrowers @GrowerService

We often hear the Bitterns in the rice fields we monitor in Benerembah but today was the first time I got close enough to get a photo with the phone. @ricegrowers @GrowerService

Our #bitternsummit was AMAZING! Huge thanks to everyone that made it happen. About 120 people came, saw and heard all about these wetland icons. @LLSRiverina @AusLandcare @ricegrowers @wetlandsworking @theCEWH @nswenviromedia @irrigation_news @TSR_Hub @GrowerService @HeronCons

Yield penalties are most likely to occur when cold temperatures persist during microspore.
Deep water provides a buffer effect against cold temperatures.
Aim to maintain deep water from 12 days after PI until mid-flowering.

In this podcast Annabel Arnold and Troy Mauger from the Rice Extension team sit down with Malcolm Taylor from Agropraisals Pty. Ltd. to discuss weed management in aerial sown crops.

[Connie Mort @connie_mort]

Great advice here - important to make sure expectations are set around weed control when relying only on post-em treatment like #Agixa. It’s very good on BYG but best results/BMP for resistance is following 3-way mix or some combo of the 3-way mix @RiceExtension @GrowerService

[Rice Extension @RiceExtension]

The second Rice Extension podcast for CY23 addresses weed management in drill sown crops.
This episode is relevant for growers who have not managed to apply their foundation spray due to poor trafficability.
