Fantastic project Rohan & team, updating pulse N data in modern farming systems.

Robust rules of thumb given all the usual limitations of soil type/pH, wet/dry years, inoculation etc.

A straight line separating 2 main treatments: left Valor EZE at 125ml rate + 2L/ha (equivalent) of 10 different formulations of o glufosinate -vs- the respective glufosinate solo (right).

I’ll present results (field + pots) at upcoming Perth Grains Updates 26. @DMAg_consultant

[GRDC @theGRDC]

A grower resource protecting beneficial insects, like #parasitoidwasps while managing #aphids in #canola, just got an update 📣

The #BeneficialChemicalToxicityTable now includes honeybee 🐝 data, helping protect both pollinators & pest fighters!

2,4-DB 2L/ha + Broastrike 25g/ha + 0.5% Uptake on capeweed relative to the untreated found at the edge of the trial. Sprayed 30/6 (last photo) they have stopped growing.

@RobertT23927730 Do you have any strips without the UAN and just Gib Acid.
Great visual 👍

Great phenology session with Julianne Lilley from @CSIRO and @CharlesSturtUni PhD student @TGreen_001 @theGRDC updates this morning! #phenologyisfun 🌼🌾

[Richard Hayes @rickchayes]

Hot off the press, our new study comparing legumes for chicory pastures.
We compared arrowleaf, balansa, sub clover & lucerne at 2 sites.
We found sub clover was the best companion for chicory. Its broadly adapted and grazing tolerant.

These resources may be helpful when looking for frost damage…
Key to monitor now and revisit in 7-10 days and NOT to panic!
Frost damage presents very differently depending on crop status and not always dependent on temp!

FarmLink Open Day this Friday!

Catch up with a few familiar faces as well as the latest in agricultural research and development.

info https://t.co/ZdBx7m5Uke

Plenty to see at our Open Day this year, cropping trials to be showcased include: John Kirkegaard @AgroJAK talks about @theGRDC Farming Systems project – carbon analysis; GRDC's #RiskWise – nitrogen risk management; The potential of green ammonia; Long coleoptile (deep sown) wheat with @_sarah_rich; Intercropping; Variety x fungicide x nitrogen trial with @BradBaxter1985; and much, much more.

For sheep producers and mixed farmers, there will be a
@SouthernNSWHub resilient pasture variety trial walk, presentations on eIDs, sheep handling and drenching, and a working dog demonstration.

Free entry, food can be purchased on the day.

Got to spend time with a legend Street City, sire of @winx_horse thanks to @godolphin for the tour!

[NSW Agronomy @NSW_AGRONOMY]

Rust reports coming in.....
Usual suspects in wheat aka Bennett & Wedgetail but also in OATS with Crown rust.... get out there & have a look🧐, if concerned contact @NSWDPI_AGRONOMY & send samples to @PbiCobbitty 👍👍👍

@s_simpfendorfer @BradBaxter1985 #pathologyisfun

[Felicity Harris @PhenologyisFun]

Some relevant information from @CharlesSturtUni PhD student @TGreen_001 exploring opportunities for '100 day wheats' suited for late sowing scenarios...some commercial comparisons from Wagga Wagga in 2021.
