25.01.2022 Re visited a couple of the Vixen (L) and Trojan (R) Wheat trials this past week. Going to be great to see harvest results.

25.01.2022 Keep an eye out for stripe rust in wheat. Its going to be a bad season. Those crops with preventive treatments are showing little or no rust.

24.01.2022 More forage barley sprinting into spring.

23.01.2022 CRM stands for Comparative Relative Maturity. These two maize lines have the same crm and were planted the same day. The quicker PAC seeds line left is 114 crm as is the Linger Pioneer one on right. The crm can only be used as a guide

22.01.2022 Marshmallows- why are we seeing them. Often after dry time seed dormancy is broken. Control is tricky - when small we have many options but as they grow control options change. See some Ive located this week 60mm Stem diameter

22.01.2022 Matt inspecting Sunflowers for Rutherglen bug.

22.01.2022 Corn is on the move - liquid Fertiliser in furrow is pushing strong early root growth.

21.01.2022 We provide assistance in procurement of agricultural inputs predominantly chemicals, fertiliser and seeds. We can actively procure product or assist in administrating company procurement / tenders of agricultural supplies.

21.01.2022 Fuel stop today for the Steiger 1500L

20.01.2022 A mix of rye, Moby and balansa clover providing late feed in Sth Vic

20.01.2022 Few different location Vic and NSW comparing new Vixen wheat (left) to Trojan (right). Vixen has been very quick out of ground see what header tells us

20.01.2022 Early start looking at green manure to improve soil health and inspect winter cabbage crops.

20.01.2022 Great example of soil throw from disc seeder following knockdown and pre em herbicide.

19.01.2022 Wheat is becoming very popular for chopped silage. This year we have been comparing different wheats in Sth Vic. These photos show winter planted crop without grazing. A Accroc K Kittyhawk B Beaufort. Cutting time is critical to achieve high protein.

19.01.2022 Dew - a lot of questions this week about dew and spraying. Dew can improve results. Rule of thumb if the dew is going to dry or lift you can typically spray. If the dew is still coming in or is likely to come in dont spray.

19.01.2022 Had to share this - sometimes I struggle to get these off without

18.01.2022 Covid curve ball today. Hand harvesting corn trial as small plot harvesters are stuck in Qld

17.01.2022 Winter corn harvest continues

16.01.2022 Moby Barley makes great early feed for cattle. Sown 50kg in April.

16.01.2022 This week Matt and I spent time with CropX moisture sensors. Mid plant corn crops are also looking good we just need heat

15.01.2022 More winter wheat planted for spring silage should yield 5-6 T DM. New agronomy tools make this possible.

15.01.2022 Winter is a great time to rest Vegetable ground with green manure. Some examples of Moby Barley grown for green manure to improve soil organic matter and reduce weeds. Can be sown Feb-Sep.

14.01.2022 Its by far the best season we have seen. Preventative fungicides have been critical. These photos show the damage stripe rust can do. Also see a great example of powdery mildew.

14.01.2022 Winter wheat - flag is out and crop is nearly home.

13.01.2022 What a difference rain makes - oats sown into Terbyne herbicide. Great result.

13.01.2022 New - Vixen wheat pushing through Logan and Stomp. This new short season wheat has potential in central and Nth Vic.

12.01.2022 As we start winter crop harvest. The corn crop is emerging well with a warm wet start.

11.01.2022 More Moby forage barley Spring 2020

11.01.2022 What a season - crops are big and potential is huge all over Vic and NSW

07.01.2022 Well I never stop finding something different in crops - today an egg . I think its a cockatoo.

07.01.2022 Why spray fallow? - now is the time to spray fallow. This practice allows you to control weeds and disease the year prior to cropping. Paddocks can be grazed over summer.

06.01.2022 With sowing done - barley is coming up after some big frosts this week.

03.01.2022 5 am kick off today - arrived at Marnoo Vic to see the sun burning off the frost

03.01.2022 Its looking like a great season for vetch most crops have had grasses removed. Its now important as crops get some ground cover to consider a fungicide.

02.01.2022 Some mask info for those in Vic

02.01.2022 We are all searching for value in break crops Canola, Beans and Vetch. Clover is often forgotten it makes a great break crop adding Nitrogen when grass free.

02.01.2022 It could be a record barley year with big crops looking for a little more rain later this month.

02.01.2022 Barley is racing towards spring. It does a lot of growing very quickly and fungicide cover in July is required.

02.01.2022 In 2019 we trialed a new kelp based pop up starter fertiliser GSN33. This season most grower have made the transition and the early root growth is amazing.

01.01.2022 Vetch is looking great after recent rain.
