Michael Hickey, #Nuseed Regional Market Development Manager for WA, introduced growers to Nuseed Hunter TF & Nuseed Emu TF at NAG field days last week. 👏 Thanks to @NigelRoutledge (Independent Rural) & Owen Manning (Nutrien) for coordinating the groups at the Yuna NVT site.

🧑‍🌾What do growers gain from #Nuseed CAT trials? @NigelRoutledge says, "The Nuseed CAT program allowed us to see canola trials on a grower scale rather than small plots. We're able to treat it as a pure farmer demo with the same fertiliser & sprays as the rest of the paddock."

Just in case those involved in AFL scheduling are visual learners. I have highlighted an issue but added a very complicated solution.

A great trial walk over at the @SyngentaANZ learning center site in #Geraldton organised by @IndependentRur1 last week. Reflex offers growers a new MOA in lupins, which some credit as a “game changer” for their system. #trials #agriculture #localssupportinglocals

Hey @LiamBartlett9 why dont you do a story about what will happen if we ban glyphosate. You could use some really good images of children starving and cities covered in dust. You wouldnt have to travel to far either. @60min #glyphosate #roundup

Alcohol kills 6000+ people annually in Australia (i googled it!). How many did GM kill???
A guy that makes a living manufacturing and selling a Class I carcinogen with known impacts disparages farmers that use safe chemistry responsibly. @GrainProducerSA @CropLifeOZ kfolta.blogspot.com/2019/08/…

"How many are we?" I ask our scorer, ignoring the answer as I covertly scan over her shoulder to confirm I made 16; later to become "20-odd"

The worst thing about always being out LBW is that your after a while your legs hurt and you can't run away from your problems anymore
