Farmers, check your balls!No, not just the guys, girls too! On the worn one, you can just barely make out whats left of the "50mm" stamp.Its worn to hell.Bikes done 40,000km, maybe half towing. New ball isn't new 😅, but its not worn. It'l do untill we change over to 1 7/8".

That’s right folks: Agricultural chemicals, not managed safely, are dangerous. So lock ‘em up, lift ‘em up, make sure they’re labelled and keep them welllll away from kids and anything else that might make them go bang in the night. ~Alex Thomas @AlexThomasPL #FarmSafetyWeek

COMMON SENSE WITH AG-CHEMICALS #1: Start with safety data sheets and/or suppliers to establish baseline info about the ag-chemical before use - it just makes sense 👌🏼 @AlexThomasPL #NationalFarmSafetyWeek #PlantASeedForSafety

We all know someone who: Picks their 👃🏼+ 'hides it'. 😂 *Forgets* to wear a seatbelt, or removes guards while no one’s watching. We’re all human + we all make questionable choices. Change takes TIME. So be patient + be kind. Everyone’s fighting a battle you know nothing about.

Ok quick #agchatoz #ausag poll. Why don’t more beef producers get involved with their State Farm orgs, peak industry councils? What’s holding them back? Can it be fixed?
