Sheep and grain farmer in the Southern Wimmera/Western district. Two keen lads.

@paradooprime But hey farmers are causing climate change. We have a really stupid population

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime @todd_venning Not that we ever had heavy skinned sheep but since stopping mulesing 7 years ago ago and tweaking the breeding to accomodate I’d never go back. More lambs weaned, lambs that turn into trade lambs within 8 months, maintained FD and fleece weight. And they just want to grow.

@k_bolto @Agrivetbusiness @paradooprime I’ll challenge him, 20 years experience on the ground tells me it’s been bloody good for our pastures, our sheep productivity and the environment. It’s not all about having the best benchmarking results

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime Haha yes and I reckon we were 10 years behind or WA counterparts

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime Couldn’t have asked for a better finish

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime Fantastic 👌

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime Gee they are getting desperate for land to want to come out here. Nuts

A few thoughts on an issue that is impacting rural Victoria in a very negative way. The ESV.

@James6616 Clarkey does ours with the bobcat a couple times a year.

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime Wish it would grow like this every August. Amazing turn around but does need to keep raining

This is what we have been able to distill so far regarding the APVMA provisional decision on paraquat & diquat. We will keep you posted as we learn more. @WAFarmersGrains @GrainProducers

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime Yep it’s nuts. Lots of them young ones I assume have come from recent harvested blue gums.

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@paradooprime This system fizzing was very dissapointing. 😢

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@MoorallaMerino Hey Rick we use AgriWebb and are very happy with it.
I think mobble worth a look too.

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@87Wlc @Yangya182 @DyringTom do you remember what we wrapped the butec in?

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@87Wlc @Yangya182 We did also put a wetsuit style stubbie holder similar around it too from memory

[Mark Jarvis @markjarvo1978]

@87Wlc @Yangya182 Yeah it’s the only way me made it work. Just sit it in hot water 20mins before it’s needed. Once it’s warm seems ok for the duration of emptying it
