Great article from my good friend @Mistadamage

We strongly encourage all growers to have their say by participating in this poll. Grains Levy Review | Grain Producers Australia

This actually would drive the economy and future prosperity for this country.

You read this correctly. 4th record WA crop in 5 years. Yes rainfall patterns are changing, & yes we are in a warming period. But NO, agriculture is not producing less. It is more bountiful than ever in history. It's time the govt & their departments spoke honestly about this.

Great couple of days with growers in the Esperance Port Zone looking at drainage in the HRZ and early sowing results. Thanks to all who attended these Hyper Profitable Crops (HPC) discussion group meetings @SEPWA_ag @theGRDC @far_australia

As promised, herewith the latest Issue of InGRAINed on disease management in wheat. In this edition of inGRAINed (Issue 5) we address flag leaf sprays and their importance in disease management strategies for wheat. https://t.co/J9lWWPXbyZ

This is what we have been able to distill so far regarding the APVMA provisional decision on paraquat & diquat. We will keep you posted as we learn more. @WAFarmersGrains @GrainProducers

Such valuable time spent networking with some very progressive Ag people from all over Australia! Banff, Lake Louise, and back to Cheadle for a feedlot / crop tour! Thx so much @WaringaFarming @bungulla6409 and the rest of the bus! 🙏

Just left Muresk, turnout is huge. Over 2700 vehicles and thousands supporting #keepthesheep wonder if Labor Metro Muppets have worked out pulled wrong lever? @Josh4Freo @PatrickGormanMP @mattkeogh
