Single disc seeding systems proving their value in 2024. Dry on top but with moisture below, early April sown canola is emerging evenly. Accurate seed placement across a range of soils & stubble types. #noclods
For what it is worth I have been experimenting with a simple index over past two years to support intuition with dry seeding decisions. Idea is to update with new experiences. I’ve certainly found it useful to straighten up the thoughts
Fops & Dens are struggling on wild oats in the eastern states. Long term fop use in cereals is resulting in moderate to high levels of resistance. Pays to test!! Lots of options especially with more diverse crop rotations eg canola & pulses. @WeedSmartAU @PBoutsalis

Trial block of wheat treated with Overwatch IBS then Mateno EPE last year. Strong residual effect during the summer fallow. Had 2 x camera sprays only for sowthistle & lettuce. Top shelf pre-ems but a low cost fallow. @WeedSmartAU
Canola going into faba stubble west of Lockhart. Perfect conditions after last weekends rainfall. After 2 very wet years handy to be sowing this block with an actual seeder!! Disc chopping nicely through faba residue while soil temps still warm. @Tom_L_Carr #warakirricropping
Vetch grazing mixes emerging through stripper stubbles at Caragabal. Marginal moisture at sowing yet the crop is up & away. Ideal feed mix for winter & kicks off the double break rotation. @WeedSmartAU @myallpark @joggy51
A great turn up to a Faba Bean Focus morning at Ganmain yesterday. Thanks for intel from @grassrootsag, @ganmain, Mal Kohlhagen and Stephen Cooper and presenters from @NSWDPI_AGRONOMY and @far_australia. Provided a balance between farm practicality and regional research
Get along to Ganmain to chat about all things faba beans. Hear from a quality line up of speakers including a grower panel on their paddock & business experiences. @brill_ag @theGRDC
Big roll up for the 2024 Grassroots pre season catch up. Thanks to our speakers for their time & passion. Hard truths from @Eric_Nankivell on managing farm profit. Fantastic grower panel on optical spot spraying with @aritchie17 @brodenholland & Janek G. @JessicaZieltjes
Cereal vetch clover silage being fed to composite ewes. Low cost DM for holding bodyweight on stubbles in autumn. Added bonus of cleaning up resistant ryegrass last spring. Double break back to TT canola this year. Mixed farming win-win. @lvherbert_leo @mccoll_rob @WeedSmartAU
TOMORROW ⏰ Join us for our webinar, where we'll discuss the challenges & opportunities of spot spray tech and incorporating it into the cropping program 🌾 📅 Wednesday 6 March at 8:00 am AWST/11am AEDT Register ➡️ buff.ly/3w7PD5U
Double knock in the summer fallow is proving effective yet again. Terrador + paraquat 10-14 days after 2,4-D + glyp has controlled cudweed, fleabane & sowthistle. Plenty of pressure on spraying teams to get through the workload but satisfying to achieve success. @WeedSmartAU
A few weeks of typical summer heat & surface soils are drying out. Wetter at the surface with the stripper stubble LHS compared the draper RHS. Be interesting to check again at sowing. Weed numbers similar but bigger sowthistle in the draper cut areas. #warakirricropping
Soil acidity & lime incorporation field day is now on Thursday 8th Feb due to the rain. Come along and see how the @theGRDC farming systems site at Wagga @nswdpi is being ameliorated. Contact Mat Dunn for more details. @MathewDunn19 @nswdpi_Soils
Lime application & mixing in full swing across southern NSW. Segmented 5cm testing guiding investment into capital rates of lime + cultivation to depth. Subsoil acidity being ameliorated in long term no-till farming systems. @JessicaZieltjes
Tune in for some Trundle wisdom from @woodview01 thanks Chris for your input + back up from @bakeragad 👍

Cathead (caltrop) spraying time with another wet summer. Slowly winning the numbers game especially keeping the grass as groundcover. Kikuyu is also a great competitor as it continues to spread around sheep yards & laneways. @WeedSmartAU
Remarkable to see lucerne seedlings emerge in the last month. Pasture was sown in late April yet some stayed dormant until the profile fully wetted up in November. @myallpark @joggy51

Curious about Weed-It technology? Let's check out Jamie Grant's firsthand experience with it on his farm in Jimbour, QLD. Jamie shares insights on how Weed-It has transformed his farming practices, making weed management more efficient and effective.
Spraying fallow with the WeedIt. I’m trying out “dual mode” where it applies a blanket low rate and then a much higher rate when a larger weed or group of weeds is detected.
@agrobaz @grassrootsag My Stoll (Hays) has had 10 megs (10,000,000lt) through it since new, R&M has been minimal. Tractor does depreciate but also gets utilised for spreading & chaser. I pay contractor $11ha for SP when required, SP worth $1.2m. Contractor comes with a jockey, cheap.
@agrobaz @grassrootsag @davelangfield75 Years like this are where the disc is worth its weight in gold.
@farmingfitz @grassrootsag @davelangfield75 It nearly is even when it’s in the shed 😉
@agrobaz @grassrootsag Spot on. R&M on a 36m Hayes tow sprayer is pretty low. I can’t see the pay off for a sp in our operation. Headers are a trickier calculation.
@grassrootsag @davelangfield75 It will be interesting to watch the impact hydraulic downforce variation will have on the ndf discs. @farmingfitz might comment. Important imo
27mm of rain over night on the block we are current sowing. The block 45km away that we need rain to sow next, 0mm🙄 Will have to get my order in a bit earlier next time.
