Visited Diddly Squat for UK Cereals event today. Thanks to all who gave me some time and were brave enough to say a few words. Met with growers, advisers, friends from Aus, NZ, UK and Africa to discuss cropping issues and solutions. How great is agriculture!. @far_australia

When One Nation win seats in the next Victorian parliament, we will relocate the new Daniel Andrews statue to a special Museum of Underwater Art in Antartica.

Captain CL popping its head out after being sown last week.
There is still time to sow winter canola and take advantage of its grazing potential before locking up for harvest.
Stock is available and ready to get out the door and into the ground.

Making spot spraying safe.... I actually enjoy it now.
Just need to get some more Chem approved long gloves and be completely safe.

I know for a fact that what @JacintaAllanMP is saying is bullshit. Manheim sell aged assets for the CFA & when some were put up for auction earlier last year, some of them were withdrawn to put back into service due to lack of trucks. How dare she lie like this! #BushfiresVic

The @AGF_Seeds wheat trial site as we head into spring field day season. Lots to show & discuss here culminating in our field day on October 22nd. 3 times of sowing & 3 fungicide strategies - should be plenty to learn @BreedersPlant @AuSeednet @agtbreeding @RAGTAU @InterGrain1

Triple 2 continues to look impressive in trials and in the paddock.
We can't wait to for its first commercial harvest so we can hear growers' experiences with this great variety.

New Lentil variety for 2026 โALB Daneโ (ALB2321) at the BCG Main Field Day yesterday. The recent AgVic releases have had a ๐ naming theme, Kelpie & Terrier, with no real correlation, but not this time, โGreat Daneโ, big dog & big Lentil.

Key time to look for STB in wheat. In photos note how the dead lower leaves start to look black (due to number of fruiting bodies). In Tasmania this week untreated RGT Accroc had 85% incidence of STB on the lower leaves compared to 5% in Longford.@far_australia @grdc
