Mixed Farming in Southern NSW - Merino Sheep - Hereford Cattle - Dryland & Irrigated Cropping

@JSeimes ULD 04 and ULD 02 - very universal. We use it for everything

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@chelseadahlen @WheatWatcher Shotgun seemed to be positive last year. 1/2 tonne better than Scepter on irrigation. Trying dryland this year

@AlboMP @JEChalmers Chris Bowen, just got back into Griffith after attending the Riverina Field Days, which by the way was attended by @PaulineHansonOz which was great to see her out supporting us, no other party representatives were in attendance to see what was happening in the real world…
Go to the local BP to fuel up & they are out of Diesel.
You guys are seriously going out of your way to destroy small businesses. My business is agricultural based. We have service vehicles that run on diesel. We need to be able to travel up to 200km to our farmers to service them on farm. We are about to go into rice harvest, sowing & cotton harvest. How the hell am I supposed to run a business if we can’t service our customers.
Throw in the extremely high price of fert, high chem prices, low water allocations & high price of temp water, increasing interest rates, low commodity prices & until yesterday the absence of significant rainfall we are struggling to survive. Our customers confidence is underwhelming & it is affecting their decision making when it comes to updating equipment, which we need to be selling to survive.
2024 most of area was hit hard with frost, 2025 the majority of our area had less than 1/2 our yearly rainfall so we are in a real predicament, farmers & businesses cash flow are at real lows.
You guys still expect me to pay my PAYG & BAS on time no matter the stresses that our businesses are going through.
We need leadership.
We need action.
We need people to invest back in our country, we have the raw materials & people to do it, we can produce almost everything we need to be self sustainable.
We need people who understand what’s going on in the real world of the people who produce the food & fibre we ALL need.
What are you going to do about it??…..

@brodenholland @gsandral What guidance sensitivity settings have you got mate? I’m struggling not to get an over reaction of curves and corners even if they’re gradual

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@pattohallam75 That’s a good idea. Doesn’t do much if the line has fallen off the cross arm though

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

Nice little heart rate boost at 5am

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@Jeremy_Morton_ Much the same with spraying, focus isn’t really at 5m height. It grab your focus pretty quickly when you see the line slowly getting lower in the window as you’re driving next to it.

@summitagconsult Stomp?

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

Any else confused about this nonsense from @Telstra? Rather than spend millions on these useless ads that don’t even advertise your company, rather your incompetence - spend money on providing reception around Australia. It’s infuriating

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

It’s true, duct tape fixes everything.

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@coyle_tim I understand, would’ve thought 1000kg would be more suitable.

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

1000L 🤥🤥

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

This is what 8ha of harvest remaining and a rain delay look like #palletchallenge

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@arnold_kelton Could do with some hungry boards mate. She’s still got another 15 tonne in her

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

No dramas keeping it away now the old girl is on the job #heavyhaulage

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@progressiveagri The dianne gravy at the Coloney is the best dianne in NSW, hands down!

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@MAWovertime Nor can we like the price on replacement part, Murray.

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

A very lucky save. Thankfully not on a public holiday. Popcorn planting should resume tomorrow

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@Oscarthefarmer Is the bottom slide one whole piece, Or in sections? If sectioned, detach the sections put and auger until that bit a pull the slide a bit. Auger it out

[Sam Sleigh @samjsleigh94]

@Mullin_95 50 hours, crop change or maintenance
