The futures of young aspiring farmers are on the line. Prime Ag land used for food production will be lost forever due to The Donald Project and other proposed mineral sands mines in VIC. Aussies – are you going to be bullied and prevented from producing food for Australia and the global population? @ACurrentAffair9 story via https://t.co/QvN9qBFf4A
@tony_swan64@brodenholland How long before it goes off patent I wonder, love the product but at nine times the cost of Trojan this year it’s a hard sell. I used it on one paddock but the rest got some warlock instead
All Victorians have the right to protect their livelihood +their property - Ag land is no different.
Protect food security + stop soil destruction in the race for renewables and mining, 🙏sign this petition. https://t.co/bcDjRe9e4c @DavidDavisMLC
@JacintaAllanMP I’m a farmer in a area effected by mineral sand mines, transmission lines and a potential wind farm. You’ve taken people’s right to appeal to VCAT away. Here’s what you were saying in 1999. You’re a fucking hypocrite.

We have written about Banyena (Vic) legend Peter “Bocky” Byrne one Anzac Day previous. The Vietnam Veteran is the epitome of what Anzac Day is all about. We spoke about the old-style characters recently....more.

Farming in Wimmera, one of the country's most essential food bowls, is under threat as the area is rich in critical minerals vital to Australia's net zero ambitions.
If you’re even remotely interested in what’s happening re mineral sand mining in the Wimmera mallee from a rural community point of view here’s an opportunity not to miss.
Will also be screened in Banyena Monday 19th Aug and Minyip Monday 26th
Reach out if you want more info
Hi all.
I’ve got a windrower with a 40 ft front looking for work in nsw and vic mallee. Just wondering if anyone in ag Twitter has any work for me or knows anyone that might be looking for a contractor.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated, pm or call 0448218053. Cheers.
You know renewables are finished when our volunteer firefighters go on strike over them! 👇
“CFA brigades are taking strike action, refusing to fight fires on land hosting high-voltage transmission lines, solar or wind farms, over what they call the Victorian government’s “reckless renewables expansion”
Most of the brigades are in communities that are being carved up by the 500kV Victoria-NSW Interconnector and subject to more wind and solar farm developments, as the Allan Government rushes to generate 95 per cent of the state's electricity from renewable › sources by 2035.
The volunteer firefighters have written to Emergency Services Minister Jaclyn Symes and CFA chief officer Jason Heffernan stating they would "restrict turn-out commitments to incidents at electricity generation and transmission infrastructure sites to 'property perimeter defence'," only entering the site if lives were at risk.
Gre Gre Village CFA captain and St Arnaud deputy group officer Peter Knights said: "Our brigades are not prepared to defend renewables infrastructure that destroys our communities, carves up our land, reduces our productive capacity and divides people."
Most of the 24 brigades backing the strike sit along 120kms of the proposed VNI West transmission line corridor, from north of Stawell and out past Charlton...”

I’ve got a 500HP pro tracker looking for a new home, Suits a case IH Steiger. We got it with a tractor we brought second hand but have no use for it with our seeder and system. I also have Trimble wiring and Nav controller to suit.
DM me if it’s of interest to you .
Seeding is sneaking up, I’ve still got this reliable weapon available to help smash the hectares.
Tough, simple, reliable and great value for money.
Sing out if you want to be the proud owner of this great example of Aussie built seeding reliability
