Exciting to be a part of developing this application of technology with Verge Ag and growers and consultants across Australia #GrainAutomate

It’s been a fantastic couple of days talking track management & CTF in the Wimmera. Thank you to @PartnersInAg1, our hosts the Bennett family & @TRethus, the machinery manufacturers @Knuckey_Aus @tposfab and all those who came along for their valuable insights & discussion
Wheel Tracks. Unique opportunity at Nhill In pdk to hear from Grower the issue, Soil Scientist the implications, & the Engineer the solution. This is what field days should be like. Thanks to PinAg, Allan Bennett, Knuckeys and Bindi Isbister (ACTFA) for getting this to happen.
