Just found out about recency bias. Maybe the most important bias ever

Shout out to OGE for taking on my feedback and making a durable, easy to install solar battery light for field bins. We’ve put these on our field bins and service truck. Can never have too many lights. offgridequipt.com.au/store/p…

Anyone on Ag Twitter wired in a PTO remote onto a JD tractor? Thought it would be easy but the tractor is seemingly too smart for it. Once solenoid wire is disrupted it disables itself.

So when is this bee population collapse meant to kick in from modern agriculture? Asking for an anaphylactic friend who can’t get back into the sprayer to spray insecticide as they’re making a hive on the sprayer.

First ever field pea crop looks like a banger. Vetch solid too. Lentils slow but reckon they’ll come home alright. All inside a lupin paddock.

#afltigerseagles max margin was 22 in a 160 point game. @sirswampthing what were the tightest games in history in terms of max margin / total score?

Local wheat basis going up in the middle/just after harvest is a telling sign.

I can still remember as a kid, driving cautiously around a 1.5m deep washout in the middle of a 40ha bare earth wodjil sand which would struggle to grow anything here.

As someone who suffers from partial deafness, #Auslan is great. But ideally we could have some sort of written words on the screen with a button on the remote to turn them on and off @abcnews

Lupin stubble (low mouse numbers) vs cereal stubble (high). Same germination date, cereal stubble initially germinated better.

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

Agricultural businesses in the northern Ag region of WA are under serious threat. In my experience, label rates of registered baits are not enough to control a population that has gone exponential. Recent inspections of baited paddocks show significant removal of planted seeds despite recent baiting after seeding - in fine weather. Growers will need to apply baits more than once, which is costly. The common sense approach would be to have registered mouse baiting products that have a rate range on the label, where higher rates can be used for higher pressure. Emergency permits required asap. @APVMA @GRDCWest @theGRDC

Dunno why everyone is complaining about the price of parts these days. Just bought a new set of crawler tracks and rollers for $75
