Eyre Peninsula grain growers, farming systems groups and others in the grains industry will meet with the GRDC Southern Panel when they visit the region next week to discuss the season, and industry opportunities and challenges.
Andrew Russell, Chair of the GRDC Southern Panel says the spring tour is a key event for panel members and plays an important role in shaping GRDC’s investment decisions: “The spring tour gives us a chance directly engage with growers, advisers and researchers in the paddock."

72 hours seems a little excessive. Who is not showering for three days? Surely 24 is enough or 48 if we have too.

Grain grower and GRDC Southern Panel Chair Andrew Russell talks about the impacts of flooding on his property in Rutherglen, Victoria, and what he hopes to learn from the experience. With a bit of seasonal cheer thrown in at the end! @GRDCSouth @russtybloke68

Aussie farmers we are getting done over again with our grain companies. We ain’t stupid
Question for lentils growers from the medium rainfall zone. When you have heaps of water and the lentils just keep growing and flowering how do you determine the best time to desiccate? I assume hot weather will stop it.
The disease resistance of sceptre has broken down this year. What should we be doing next year? What variety is out there that is a suitable replacement?
Been looking at our @yieldprophet reports this morning. It is September 23 and our yield lines are vertical on half of the paddock. The yield is set. Extra rain won’t make a difference. Amazing for the Mallee. #NewHRZ
