The opening of the cotton gin in Kununurra is a milestone that honours that legacy. It's the foundation of an intergenerational, clean, and sustainable production system - cotton, corn, and cattle - powered by hydro,built for the long term.

Livestock emit methane, methane oxidises into carbon dioxide, plants take up carbon dioxide to grow ♻️ If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. 🐮 🌱 🥩

100%,we have had solar power for 15 years on remote stations Bottom line, without a back generator in low sun/high load periods it won't work. Would need to triple battery solar capacity to cover this. Equals the grid still needs Gas/Nuclear backup. Nuclear has lower emissions
I’d support a nuclear plant in our local Gladstone. Makes sense to build at existing coal fired location, negating the need for a swathe of new transmission lines to feed into the thousands of hectares of proposed solar panels covering prime ag land.

Low fog over the Kimberley this morning, weird sensation like flying over the ocean with white waves.

If anyone seen a crazy woman jumping up and down and waving from a causeway bridge on Kwinana Freeway that was me. Love this industry. Agriculture is the lifeblood of Australia #keepthesheep

We have spent many years converting our remote business to solar and battery renewable power. This is the best article yet I have seen that discibes the challenges for the national grid. theaustralian.com.au/inquire…

Honey I’m home 🛳️🐂🐑💚 Home is where the heart is and the heart is looking after livestock while feeding the world and having a positive impact. This industry is not cruel and it is extremely important industry from farm right throughout the supply chain.

Great article, one of the biggest challenges faced by bush communities. It's mentally harrowing and becoming financially unattainable, meaning good people leave the bush. How about a tax break for boarding as well? To pay tax and then boarding fees is the killer.

Water running down the Surt Creek on way to Lake Gregory. Another wave from the Birrindudu water is expected in the next few days. Fantastic inland natural irrigation scheme to grow some beef.@MattBrannRURAL

It’s a pretty ordinary time in the cattle game atm with the perfect storm of market issues/bottlenecks & relative oversupply of cattle to seasonal conditions. We need Aussies to support our beef cattle producers by throwing a steak on the bbq #showusyoursteak 🥩 🇦🇺

Holy F! The scale of these NT fires is huge. Thoughts to those impacted.
Chucked this together to provide an idea of the scale and speed of the fires in the Tanamai over the last few weeks. Watch to the end.

In the past five months more than 600 bushfires have been reported in the Kimberley and Pilbara regions - almost half of which are suspected arson. Frustrated pastoralists are now urging State government to assist by proactively targeting and investigating those responsible 👇🏼 – at Katanning, Western Australia

Doing my best for hopefully some good Karma on the fire front. Emu and chick's behind if you look closely, hunting them into the safety of the river bed from oncoming fire front. Kimberley fires have been crazy this year.
