The faces of some very happy West Aussie farmers! 😁
341 days since our last double digit rainfall event (and not a moment too soon) Mother Nature has delivered the 2024 break ☔️
I’d like to thank long term datasets and sunny, wind free days for keeping me sane up until now 😂

Managing PA across multiple farms means I’ll always advocate for reliable data collection, useful system integrations and seamless data migration. Remember: like cash hidden under your mattress, data is only valuable if you use it!

No words to describe the thrill of watching canola emerge on a b**tard of a non-wetting headland next to a line of trees 😂 god speed little ones! #justfarmerthings

🕯️Burning the candle at both ends 🕯️ First EZI (zoom edition) committee meeting we managed to sneak in between the pre-seeding mayhem last night. Defining the direction of the group in the coming months, expect to hear more from us going forward.

This memory popped up today, reminding me that 2 years ago the first crop of #Warakirri grads presented our research projects to the board. Fitting that today the third group of grads are about to undertake the exact same task. Can’t wait to see what they achieve 💪 #imgettingold

Story of the day: discovered an iPhone in my freshly swathed canola crop. Looked to have been there a while (pre petal drop). Turns out it’s rightful owner lost it in Sept 2019. Plugged it in and it works! Survived >350mm rainfall, 8 chem sprays, harvest, slashing and seeding 😂

@Eganfarming performing the first phase of open heart surgery on unproductive sand to transform it into fertile soil. WA farming systems never fail to continually challenge and amaze me #soilameliorationsaturday
