Really looking forward to this #FarmSmart19 talk in January by @jftooker from Penn State: "Slugs and IPM—Healthier soil decreases troubles from menacing molluscs?" John says we can make slugs fear our fields! #Ontag @FarmSmart18

Once a presentation at #FarmSmart18 now a reality for #ontag growers!
Time to share what "next" looks like. I'm excited to announce that @FieldwalkerAg will up and running for the 2019 cropping season. What does this mean? It means #ontag growers will have the opportunity to try @CropProCory 's #swatmaps for the first time!

#AquaTill tool to ensure more consistent sowing depth from the point of view that it overcomes residue issues like raking and hair-pinning. A knife or disc device is still required for seed depth. #AquaTill allows that device to do its job in wet or dry conditions

It was terrific to have iCubed and Aussie guest Greg Butler present on the waterjet planting concept at FarmSmart Expo Thursday. When you consider our moisture situation great to have Greg talk about how they manage these conditions continuously!

#AquaTill article and video from @FarmSmart18 with thanks to @realagriculture

How about some Aqua-Till? Just trade those coulters for water jets. Check it out on Corn School with @GregoryButler71 @FarmSmart18: bit.ly/2Nf34W8

Really enjoyed talking to 180 people over the course of the day at @FarmSmart18 in Ontario Many growing on 30" rows and wanting to improve seeding Lots of potential for #AquaTill in those circumstance Always good to see water-jet-guru @jeffreyMartel3 and agri-guru @WheatPete

The most important part of the plot: Trials may or may not gain bushels - knowing the difference could save you $$$! #ontag #farmsmart18

Cool research to help increase crop diversity in #ontag with dry bean crops @FarmSmart18 @megnmoran #soil

One of the cooler things we saw at farm smart today, using water jets to cut seed trench instead of coulter or knife. Uses about 25 gallons of water per acre #ontag @FarmSmart18

Interesting insight on cereal rye cover crop to help with fleabane control. Possible allelopathy as canopy closure is quite thin and therefore lack of competition. Shall see what the future holds. #ontag #farmsmart18 #scotlandagromart

Great to see AquaTill Liquid Coulter being developed by friends in Canada. Very happy to be travelling to Ontario for @FarmSmart18 to share my experiences inventing #AquaTill and testing it on Australian farms. @SANoTill trials show AquaTill benefits for tine and disc seeding.
