🌾Grow lupins? We want to hear from you! What’s working, what isn’t, and what could make lupins a better fit in your farming system? Take our 7-minute grower survey and share your experience. Your input will help build a clearer picture of how lupins are managed locally and where future R&D could make a difference. 👉 Complete the survey here: bit.ly/4xZWdFR This survey is part of a @TheGRDC funded project led by the Grower Group Alliance (GGA) and delivered locally by @FaceyGroup, helping build a better understanding of lupin management across our region and inform future R&D.

🌾 WHAT A WEEK IT WAS! This time last week, we were wrapping up a massive five-day road trip, bringing @TheGRDC Harvester Set-Up Workshops to growers across the region. From Cascade to Mount Sheridan, Carrolup, Kukerin & Quairading, we covered plenty of kilometres – and shared a wealth of harvest knowledge along the way! A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, asked questions, shared experiences & got involved in the practical discussions. Across the five workshops, our specialist presenters shared their expertise on reducing harvest losses, improving harvester efficiency, HWSC, fire prevention, grain storage & getting more from your harvest operation. A big thank you to @PrimarySales & our fellow grower groups for working alongside @FaceyGroup to bring these workshops to the region – and especially to our specialist presenters for generously sharing their time, knowledge & experience. Five days. Five communities. Plenty of kilometres. A huge amount of knowledge shared. Now to put it all into practice as harvest approaches! #FaceyGroup #GRDC #PrimarySales #HarvesterSetup #Harvest2026 #WAAgriculture #growergroups #localagresearch
