AFL umpiring hits a new low at the MCG with two gift goals to Brisbane before half time and the ball taken all the way from Geelong goals . Very soft and doubtful decisions during a final. Shame on those in yellow involved.

90 People braving the wind at SFS Rokewood site for Feedbase Focus listening to Jesse Wettenhall on what is surviving the toughest season for 60 years. Everyone hoping for a decent spring otherwise it will be the worst pair of years for a century in Southwest Victoria.

I am proud of my family’s service to the #CFA and the countless hours spent volunteering their time. From CFA lieutenants to captains, to DGOs and board members. The fire levy is a complete insult to every volunteer in Victoria. Farmers are already hurting! #hungouttodry

SFS farmers in Vic and Tassy have been tracking this paddock scale trial at Mt Mercer last year with clover under wheat which was harvested without killing the clover and is now Canola and clover. Amazing success that will challenge our conventional thinking.

Inverleigh trial site looking good considering how much rain we have NOT had and a dose of hail. Well done to all the staff.

Cracking article here by @CorishChantal. I’d add that supporting farmers doesn’t mean well intentioned fundraisers during droughts and floods. It means not belittling the professional people who work with nature to clothe and feed people

Good crowd of hardy agros and farmers at the SFS Inverleigh Trials Walk in very cold conditions discussing Winter Canola and its grazing and time of sowing. Day 3 of our walks in Southwest Victoria. Well done to staff as all sites look great.

A bit of Private Enterprise public transport. A lot more efficient than the mess run by the Victorian Government today. Only way to come in from the west of Melbourne in an hour.
