Very exciting results on a Turnip yellows virus (TuYV) resistant #canola variety by @bcong11 @GRDCWest
Podding at our #TuYV resistance trial. At this late stage, typical symptoms diminish/disappear, and TuYV can be difficult to see: stunted plants with fewer, smaller pods. The good news is varietal resistance appears to alleviate this. Yield data soon! @theGRDC @DPIRDbroadacre

Huge contrast this year in canola crops in Geraldton port zone at least. The crops that emerged on significant rainfall from cyclone Narelle in late March are dense, bulky canopy + flowered in July = the ones with Sclerotinia. This crop at Three Springs also has powdery mildew

The neosocialists are too simple to understand that intelligent first home owners don't want to buy in a falling market either.
The focus group lead sound byte of "falling prices are good for first homeowners" is as mythical as every other Labornomics concept.
Pulling everone down is not the same as lifting everyone up.

So many of us have had our lives affected by this horrific disease, whether ourselves or a loved one.
F*** cancer.

I was surprised when Jeremy Clarkson texted me on Boxing Day to say how much he liked my @paddypower ad urging men to get tested for prostate cancer. Now I understand.
I wish my old sparring partner all the best with his treatment. Guys, have a PSA test, it may save your life.

Jeremy Clarkson has been diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer during the final two episodes of Clarkson’s Farm.💔
Heartbreaking news. The disease was caught early and he has since undergone surgery.
Jeremy has left us with the words -
"If this is all successful, I'll see you for season six, and if it isn't, I won't".
We’re all praying for a full recovery, our thoughts are with all those affected by this awful news. Hold your loved ones close.❤️

Wild radish appears better controlled by either glufosinate or glyphosate applied as stand-alone. Mild antagonism observed with the tank mix.

Combination of Clethodim + Roundup Ready Performance Liquid on ryegrass resistant to Dims, Glyphosate or both. Photo is of 12 populations. Each pot is a single population. The location of each pot in each tray is the same population.
Ryegrass from WA, SA, Vic and NSW chosen.
Rob Campbell retweeted
Our replicated pot trials identified that tank-mixing Clethodim + Atrazine was antagonist vs. Clethodim alone or separating the mixes. The longer the separation the greater the control. We included 3 DIM-resistant and 1 susceptible ryegrass in the study. @WeedSmartAU

Update @APVMA
Might be knock off time at your place bit we're still living the nightmare. Spent $100k baiting so far and we won't get to harvest this 400ha unless we reseed it. Might not rain for another fortnight so we've lost 6 weeks of growing season, damage immeasurable 😢
A few that dodged the mice. Then the rest of the paddock got plucked before they got going. Never mind, the good folk at @APVMA have been collecting a wage for months whilst deliberating the merits of ZP50.

#BREAKING The father of slain Australian soldier Robert Poate says his son’s killer still roams free while Australia hunts its own.
Private Robert Poate, a young Australian soldier, was riddled with 11 bullets by an Afghan Army “friendly”
Hugh Poate said it’s hard to stomach the fact the Albanese Government has dropped the ball on that case while splashing millions of dollars investigating Ben Roberts-Smith.
An allied ANA soldier known as “Hekmatullah” who was being mentored by Australian soldiers, murdered three Aussies and wounded two others in an insider attack.
Within 20 minutes of that attack, a small team of SAS soldiers led by Roberts-Smith was tasked with a capture/kill mission of Hekmatullah.
It was on this mission that 5 “war crime murders” allegedly occurred.
Hekmatullah was later captured in Pakistan where, with chilling defiance, he proudly confessed to all 4 charges – murdering 3 Australian Soldiers, wounding two, treason and being a member of a terrorist organisation.
He was sentenced to death.
It was later revealed that DFAT was unbelievably opposed to the death sentence being carried out & Hekmatullah was subsequently released.
Today, he roams free in the mountains of Afghanistan, while Ben Roberts Smith is persecuted by Anthony Albanese.

Some highlights from last night's Channel 7 Spotlight.
Little wonder why Chris Bowen refused to be interviewed.
Our power grid is being sold out to the Chinese.

I don't think Australians will be comfortable with how the Chinese companies treat their miners in Africa
